I'm also dealing alot with DVB and related issues (eg. the i2c messup, as for the cx88 based devices pcmcia iomem reservation back then .. and many other issues which went through other subsystems). That there's no progress at the other sides is not true: http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/em28xx-new/shortlog permanent development for the last couple of months. All you could do there is to take out the usbids copy it to linuxtv.org and play against all the people who contributed to the other tree and which is manufacturer supported. I'd really better think twice if you want to keep up reverse engineered drivers with linux which are capable of melting devices (this happens with wrong configurations). Why am I interested in DVB? Because we have devices supporting multiple standards which are yet not directly supported by the DVB framework. The lies that I forked off the driver which I initially submitted to linuxtv is ridiculous as you modified the wiki site on linuxtv.org. See all that you and Mauro basically have done is copying the code from mcentral.de and trying to build up a second front against the manufacturer supported work. I'm seriously for a new Maintainer election here, let's see what will come up during the next few days.
