I still strongly recommend that this library is added to the v4l-utils
repo. That already has support for v4l, dvb, media controller and IR
(i.e. everything under drivers/media), and the CEC library/utility should
be added there IMHO.

For example, I might want to use it in qv4l2, so being able to link it
knowing that I always get the latest version is very useful.

Also, v4l-utils is always updated to be in sync with the latest media_tree
kernel, and since CEC is part of that you really don't want to reinvent the
wheel in that respect.

There were objections in the past to renaming v4l-utils to media-utils, but
perhaps this should be revisited as it hasn't been v4l specific for a long 
time now.

Regards,

	Hans
