At the moment. And that probably exceeds Amiga users, 386 users, some of
the serial port users, several network card users ...

In the past we've merged drivers for network cards where only two
existed in the world. Linus has repeatedly stated he wants to see stuff
people are using getting in. Good clean code that doesn't affect the core
is good reference material.

I think you are (unusually) the one out of step here ?
