oh, probably. :-) i realize it sounds nitpicky and pedantic, but it would have been nice if the source was consistent on this. but based on my grep of the tree, i don't see that that's possible -- too many examples of each. it's kind of a mess. personally, i'd prefer a consistent usage of "i2c" or "I2C" as well, but i just don't see it happening. rday
