Harvey,

The greater portion of my refactoring changes have been merged.  As far 
as I am concerned, you should feel free to send in cleanup changesets now.

Manu,

We can't expect Harvey to avoid conflicts with multiproto -- do you have 
any plans to ACTUALLY merge these changes?  You've been saying "any day 
now" for the past two years.

If you plan to merge multiproto for 2.6.26, then, IMHO, now is the 
time.  Otherwise, it's safe for Harvey to do his cleanups.

Harvey,

If you decide to move forward with these cleanups now, please keep the 
previous discussion in mind -- please generate the changesets against 
the v4l-dvb master repository, hosted on linuxtv.org, and please 
separate the changesets by each level of the directory tree hierarchy.

Regards,

Mike Krufky
