A prepositional word in the English language, as http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/of tells me. And it's used quite often placed 2nd. Just see http://ask.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/03/03/028258 If it ___really___ ought to be short worded, at least have it OFW. (Or make it drivers/ieee1275 so it can make friends with ieee1394) But I still discourage of. The next thing people want for their not-so-open firmware is drivers/f.
