Sorry,

For some reason this message didn't come through from Google Apps over
IMAP to Thunderbird.
I only just saw it now when I was using the web interface.

I thought it was, but the lack of source, and the conversations I had
with the developer in the past about releasing the code led me to the
conclusion that there wasn't much community involvement.

I have a bunch of programming experience, but I'll admit none of it is
kernel or driver work, however I do have some of the hardware this
driver is for. If you can get the code out I'd like to try my hand at
it. I beleive the original code was a BSD License.

If the test suite is distributable, then I'd be happy to run the tests
on my hardware for you.
