Slow response, sorry.  Happily, I'm actually done crossing oceans for a
little bit...

I'm confused...you're talking about 26/31 still?

I2c works fine on 0x31; that's how the via-camera driver talks to the
sensor.

You could do that, but, if you look at what's there, that's essentially
what's done now - it's a bitbanging driver.  So I'm not quite sure what
you would change.

Sorry if I'm being slow.
