I greatly appreciate all of the work you have done here, with this
almost impossible task (no specs, random code drops from external
people, limited feedback loop from the company, etc.)

I blame the company for the situation here, not you at all, and its
great that the PCI division is doing much better now.  Hopefully the USB
side will come around over time.

thanks,
