Hi Wayne,
I understand what you mean, and this is for the same reason you expose here that I wanted to be sure we can develop our own K107 controller (or not). It appears it's not clear if we can or not, so we'd better go with our own "jallib made" controller. This was the first thing I wanted to do, but then I heard about K107, and wanted to possibly provide a standard controller. So, not a big deal, we'll build and specify our own. Joep seems to have a ideas about how such controller should do (and it appears it's going far beyond what I was thinking). As he said, and this was also one of my purpose, mixing a lot of libs, and building such an app is a good exercise to check if API make sens, if things are flexible enough, etc...
