Hm. Yes, the w2sg00x4 is a Sirf based chip. > I had that use-case in mind when implementing s/implementing/reinventing/ > the driver, and some ideas of how it should be > done, but did not get around to actually implement it yet. What do you need ideas for? We have that function working and submitted year after year, but it was always rejected for API reasons. You could have simply reused what we have proposed [1] and just adapt it to the new API instead of writing a new driver (which is missing some features for us). "proof-of-concept" is misleading if you expect this to become *the* Sirf driver and we are just invited to add some features to that. Making our own work and proposals completely obsolete. What I find really strange and foul play is that we are in the review process and then comes a hidden counter-proposal by the reviewer. Well, this is FOSS...
