You ran with the project, you took negative and positive feedback and tried to figure out the best route to success. You were (fairly) positive and I believed that building drivers on your framework changes was a good thing. The group was noisey but the general feeling was that multiproto had merit and would bring good things.
That was in the past. Sadly, multiproto now comes bundled with too much baggage for me to support it. The group is fractured and splintered, infighting is common and multiproto (and the baggage/politics surrounding it) is part of that problem. I tried to salvage the project a number of times but you can't find a way to bring the patches back to the community at linuxtv.org. I hope you find peace in your soul and can settle the issues you have with Mauro. Anyway, sadly, I had to drop support for the HVR4000 via your patches and I'll have to find a way to reimplement support via another mechanism. You're on you own. - Steve _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
