Hi all

I made a post awhile ago asking about NI drivers. Then Ulrik Pederson
from DIAMOND responded and said he had some code.
I then started to continue development on this driver and have made much
progress since then.

I recently asked about eagle drivers as they have similiar cards. 
Emmanuel Mayssat said he is interested in the NI driver. So I thought
that maybe somebody else is also interested.

So Here is some information:

The SVN repos:
http://epics.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/epics/applications/trunk/DAQmxBase/

(use "svn co addr" to checkout)
You won't have upload/commit permissions.

Inside the source under the documentation folder is the current
documentation. See readme first.

The driver uses NI's DAQmxBase drivers at this stage.

USE AT OWN RISK :)

Actually I don't think this is the best driver to be using as it only
supports a few linux distro's. Will maybe consider using something else
later on.
