Yea, I was one of the original people working on it.  I got really busy with
college and had to take a break and then nearly forgot about it.  I started
working on it again this past weekend and I am pretty determined to make it
work.  I have finals in about 4 weeks though.

I haven't determined any more information about the color format though. :<
Also, I don't think John will be working on it, he seemed to be scared of the
DMCA, but he may surprise me.

I think that makes sense.  I was looking at some of the other camera drivers
and they seem to use isoc transfers, but this camera seems to use bulk
transfers instead.

If you can figure out anything about the color format I would appreciate it.
