The advantage to that approach is that us
Johannes,
If you'd send a note when either one of Alan or Linus'
kernels contains all your recent patches telling folks
whove experienced problems using drivers with uhci,
that'd enable us to get a quick sanity check of where
we stand.
Thanks,
Miles

I am not a lawyer, so please don't rely on this as legal advice.

That would be me :-)
Anyway, can you send me a traceroute (private, not on the list)? A few months

Please not this one.
It lacks all improvements done to the mother driver for about half a year.
I'll get the hardware within two weeks.
As the original author has vanished, I'll maintain it.
In the current state it's basically a nightmare to get to work.

That should read "and I _don't_ see a name of the person to contact
about the driver." Sorry for the confusing typo.

Agreed. I am especially interested in seeing the uhci and usb-ohci
changes go in. There are patches which I'm not even sure are in
your ac tree, yet.

The binary part would simply get forgotten. Leave a comment so that people know
where to get the binary module including one by ftp/http.

Greetings,
Today I released the first version of a Philips webcam driver that contains
enough source code to get a working webcam on all Linux platforms that
support USB. Release 7.0 contains only a small binary part which is
completely optional (with some degradation in features, yes).
