Ok, I should be doing status reports, so here's my first cut at what is happening and what is going on so far. I'll try to do these every few weeks, and I also encourage the project managers of active projects to also do this. First off, I'm going to try to keep the list of current projects up at: http://linuxdriverproject.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/ProjectStatus but will use email to announce new projects. That page will just be a short summary about the different projects, and what is going on with them. Project managers, feel free to flesh out the individual pages for the projects if you wish. But note, please do not post company information or data sheets unless the company explicitly says it is ok. The majority of the companies working with us don't want the fact that they are using us to be all that public, for various reasons. Currently, I'm talking with about 3-4 new companies about more projects, and am working on a list of external modules that need to get cleaned up and added to the kernel tree that this project can help out with. But what we are really lacking right now is more companies involvement. If anyone can think of a way to drum up more company interest, please let me know. So, here's the current projects, and what is going on with them. Project managers, feel free to add more information. --------- Project 001 Project Manager: Frank <codemonkey at soapweed.com> Summary: At least 3 drivers for a single manufacturer, all i2c devices Current status from what I know: 3 developers have the data sheets and are starting to work on the code. --------- Project 002 Project manager: Jaya Kumar <jayakumar.lkml at gmail.com> Summary: VIOP gateway solution needs a driver Current status: unknown, Jaya, any information? --------- Project 003 Project Manager: Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg at kroah.com> Developer: Brandon Summary: USB and PCI driver for time-stamp device Current Status: Brandon is waiting for the arrival of the hardware, and he has the data sheets for the devices. --------- Project 004 Project Manager: Unknown Developer: Unknown Summary: High-speed data capture PCI device driver Current Status: I messed up and didn't assign a project manager to this yet. Will do so in a few minutes (one has volunteered.) I'll then forward on all the information from the people who offered to work on this. --------- Project 005 Project Manager: Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg at kroah.com> Developer: Steve Summary: clean up existing USB driver. Current status: Steve has done a lot of work and has sent the code to Greg for review, which he now needs to do... he has the data sheets for the devices. --------- Project 006 Project Manager: Max Developer: Manu Summary: video digital demodulator driver Current Status: Manu and Max are working together, don't know what the current status is... ---------
