Another thing, loosely related to this, is how we are going to deal  
with the 'generic' VID:PID combinations in some of the USB drivers,  
for example the megatec_usb and (new) blazer_usb drivers. At present,  
in the megatec_usb driver we have several VID:PID combinations for  
USB-to-serial converters that are commonly found in UPSes. But what  
happens if other totally unrelated (non-UPS) devices use the same  
controllers? Or that kernel level support becomes available for them?

Unless a VID:PID combination unambiguously identifies a USB device as  
a supported UPS, using it in a HAL addon is probably not a very good  
idea. Should we remove the 'hald-addon-megatec_usb' driver before  
releasing nut-2.4?

Best regards, Arjen
