I would like new drivers for new devices to live into the wild.

Seriously, I think it's a good think to have new drivers lift along
with the kernel source distribution to get *much* wider attention,
testing, hacking and feedback.

I propose GREG_GOES_WILD and I will happily commit my
driver-in-progress to the kernel staging areas instead of to some
two-people-know-about-it-location.

Thanks for the effort, Greg,
