Because no one has had enough interest to do it yet.
The DEFZA requires a new driver. The DEFQA can reuse
the existing PDQ framework for DEF[TPE]A.

I know that
you are the author of the *BSD DEF[TPE]A driver.
It seams you know the DEFZA hardware closer too?
How hard would it be to write a NetBSD driver for the DEFZA?
(I am an experienced Unix user, medium C coder and have already done
some NetBSD kernel hacking. Namely a RX02 driver.)

the existing PDQ framework for DEF[TPE]A.
That was my thought when I had a quick
glance at the DEF[TPE]A driver
due to an other issue. (See my mail on port PPC at NetBSD...)

The question is whether anyone with the ability wants to write
such a driver. I know I don't!

So DEFZA is different hardware from the other three? The NetBSD/pmax FAQ
seems to indicate otherwise. Maybe it should be changed.
