me too :)

there are other, similar I2C LED driver chips which might be 
handled with the current pca9633 driver, e.g. the pca9685 (which is 
supported under pwm/ by the way)

people have argued that the numbering scheme of chips is hard to 
predict; hence, the driver name should be determined by the first 
device supported to avoid subsequent renaming -- but I have no strong
feelings about this

regards, p.
