Subject: Is anyone maintaining (or even using) usbtmc?

Hi all-

I'm trying to use usbtmc on an Aglient N9310A (The only TMC device I
have), and it sort of works, but it seems to be both extremely buggy
and missing a good deal of rather important functionality.  Is there
anyone maintaining it?

If the answer is yes, I can describe the bugs (logspam, spurious
errors, delayed messages, inability to read status, etc.) in greater
detail.

If the answer is no (as I suspect it is), then I might give fixing it
a shot the week after next, when I'll be camping out in Virginia with
this thing for awhile.  In that case, I have another question:

Is anyone using usbtmc, or, more specifically, does anyone care about
backward compatibility?

If not, then I'll be less careful to preserve the interface, even
though I'm not really sure that there's much of interest to preserve.

Thanks,
Andy, who's happy that the driver at least works a little bit
