It might help things here or it might have no effect, however you'll 
probably be interested to hear that I am now the lead developer of 
libusb. fpusb will soon be renamed to libusb and later released as 
libusb-1.0.

The principles/goals behind fpusb nicely fit in with the original ideas 
for libusb, so it makes sense for my work to become the future libusb 
given the inactivity of that project.

Maybe the size of the existing libusb community will help things 
adoption- and porting- wise.
