More specifically, getting the basic decoders to work with very specific
hardware -- i.e., the mceusb transceivers, and primarily focused only on
RC-6(A) decode w/the mceusb bundled remotes. That, and getting the lirc
bridge driver working for both rx and tx.

Basically, my plan of attack has been to get enough bits in place that we
have a "reference implementation", if you will, of a driver that supports
all in-kernel decoders and the lirc interface, complete with the ability
to do tx[*], and from there, then we can really dig into the in-kernel
decoders and/or work on porting additional drivers to ir-core. I'm more
focused on porting additional drivers to ir-core at the moment than I am
on testing all of the protocol decoders right now.

[*] we still don't have an ir-core "native" tx method, but tx on the
mceusb works quite well using the lirc bridge plugin
