I suggest you talk to the _ide_ people rather than the pcmcia list.
It's more the IDE subsystem which you're playing with than the PCMCIA
subsystem, so I suggest these issues should be directed there.

Please don't assume that Dominik and myself have taken over all the
PCMCIA card drivers.  We haven't - we most definitely don't have
time for that.  The card drivers must transition to the
responsibility of the individual subsystem maintainers.
