This "the bad linuxtv guys blocked my drivers for years" allegation is unsubstancial as I tried to show in http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2007-June/018853.html IMHO it is your inability to make compromises and work with the community which blocked the merge. Issues don't just magically resolve all by themselves if you just wait long enough. Your attempts to force the merge with flames and ultimatums (yes, plural) failed.

You think you're the only competent programmer, and everyone who dares to have different opinions just gets in the way and holds you up?
