One or two people have expressed interest in using a port. One or two people
have previously said they'd help out if one was started but I don't think
it's actually underway (not yet, anyhow).
I also checked through the OpenBSD kernel mailing lists a while ago but there
wasn't much enthusiasm there.
For anyone starting a port, the code in the other BSD ports might be a useful
thing to a look at, although the concensus last time this came up was that
the BSDs have diverged too far for reusing this code to be a matter of "drop
it in and run" in this case.

Yup, I think it'd be a really nice thing to have, allowing OpenBSD to leverage
device drivers of other OSes in a sandboxed fashion, and to allow other OSes
to run OpenBSD-based services.
Another thing I'd *love* to see is a port of DragonflyBSD. I've heard more
positive noises about the potential to reuse code from the FreeBSD port here.
Cheers,
Mark
