    Not actively.  There are no commentments to support the DEMFA.  Though
    if I ever finish my ULTRIX driver, it may go into ULTRIX or ASSETTS.

RE .-1

What do you mean by "not actively" ?

Is there any hiden, unnofficial project started, going on, abandoned ?

What is its status ? Is there any available base which a development can be
based on ?

    OSG has no plans to support the DEMFA.  Though if I can get a driver
    finished, it may go into 4.miranda (or at least the hooks for it).
    
    As for a base, since a MFA driver will be identical to the FZA driver,
    you could use DS5000-xxx as a base for now.

You mean you made TCP/IP running on DEMFA (although it is not official), 
and it is identical to DEFZA driver form the viewpoint of application?
It sounds great! Why not let it be supported under Ultrix?
Supported under Ultrix is the best, but ASSETS is good too.

( Hi! Michel, it is a good news, isn't it?)
