I actually wasn't speaking of taking the source (that Oracle most likely wouldn't provide, anyway) but about the possibility to take and integrate pre-compiled modules. Wouldn't that _potentially_ be possible in this case for anyone desperately needing USB 3?

Cheers
 Stefan

On listbox, september 2013, the discussion is headed "anyone seen wireless USB in the wild?"

There are developments afoot, but currently it is not shipped in any system based on Illumos AFAIK

We cannot take any source from Oracle unless they release it, they are not currently releasing source code.  Even if Oracle decided to release source code, we are a fork, and it might no longer be compatible code.
