Let's *not* remove DTV support for WOODBURY board -- it is not the
business of the public whether or not the board shipped in
mass-production. The board profile is in fact being used for some
reference designs, and I still use my woodbury prototype to test the
MXL tuner.
I am not the only person using this profile -- no not remove it, please.
