why not just push to gregkh?  After all, he is the USB honcho, and his
tree is automagically included in -mm.  Anyway, we currently have the
following problems

(1) I haven't finished porting the speedtch driver to the new usbatm
model.
(2) the new setup requires that the ATM layer generate hotplug events.
Roman posted a patch, but I don't know what happened to that.
(3) a small patch will need to be applied to modem_run, for those weird
people who don't want to use the in-kernel firmware loader.

As far as I can see, the main problem we have is me: I have hardly any
time to work on this stuff.  Things have calmed down at work so it may
be better for the next couple of weeks...


Ciao,

D.
