Cool.

Even cooler. ;)

I browsed your pages a few days ago and found some CAN driver patch.
Maybe you want to submit a polished :) version for inclusion into
mainline - so that your users don't have to patch Xenomai for this.

I think a link from the Xenomai wiki to your project would be
appropriate as well.

BTW, did you already have a look at the recently merged COMEDI-over-RTDM
framework (2.5-SVN)? Do you plan to add support for it as well?
