I am interested in information about the latest version of the EIA TR-29 spec. I have a copy of the September '89 spec and a Fax Modem based on the XR 2900 chipset. I am looking to write a driver for it more or less from scratch and would like any help poeple can provide in following matters. Yes I have looked at faxpak recently posted to comp.unix.sources and it appears to be such a different modem that it is of little use. 1. Does anyone have (or know how to get) a more recent version of the specification. The EIA people say they have withdrawn it and will prehaps release a public version late this year or early next! 2. Has anyone written any C code for this spec (or closely related) one which they are happy to give out? Or prehaps just strongly thinking of doing something like this. 3. Has anyone had experience of the XR 2900 chip set and its modems? Note mine is a clone of their of XR's local development kit by Maestro Inc. (available only in OZ in case its not obvious). 4. Is anyone on the TR-29 committee that can comment on the progress of the standards (if they can't release it at the moment). If there is any reponse to this as mail I will summarise to the net.
