The ack of Richard Walker and / or Jamie Honan I simply cannot get as they are not reachable at all. Moreover Krufky provided nothing except transforming a name list from horizontal to vertical (really kiddish to see someone like him holding lectures about "author rights", isn´t it)? So especially HIM it IS who simply should SHUT UP for reason of stupid kiddishness! He personally is so proud to be part of contributors.txt, but I ask myself: FOR WHAT THE HELL? His "maintaining inter tree dependencies" everybody has seen for months: NO stable bt8xx driver for almost three kernels, and a stable solution without mercurial tree is still not in sight! Would YOU call guys like him a maintainer? I hesitate! Although I DO NOT like him at all I could accept Abrahams share. Even if Honan provided authoring shares for dst modules, does it automatically provide author rights for a documentation? I wonder! And whatever concerns the substantial part of the patch: 1. It is based on the assumption that the TwinHan cards are the only ones in whose case autodetection does not work in every case. So I decided to remove all card IDs as long as there are no messages proving me something else. And I already offered the proposal to add every card afterwards if there is a founded proof that autodetection does not work in all cases. 2. I tried to compress and simplify the whole text. 3. I added necessary cross references. I MEAN: Some SHIT text everyone can write. But having a precise idea about what "documentaries" are like apparently noone has, with my personal exception. I´d offer to add some more work on this if I can be sure that all problems about this can be fixed before I add more work, not after it. "Also, as posted at ML, at least some of the guys at the community wanted some of the removed text." With superficial statements like this one I do not have any chance to do better. Please be more precise, Mauro, and be clear, and give exact exmples of whom you mean and what you want to say. do not rant around in that superficial manner, and at least try to simply ignore idiots like Krufky.
