Yeah, although I probably don't have much in defense. I am still using
it, mostly for isdnlog since I never got mISDN to work. I even wrote
the missing sysfs support for i4l some seven years but never had to guts
to submit it, mostly since it's not the best code and I never tested the
tty part of it. Some many ideas, so many plans, so little time.

But I do have to admit the great times of ISDN are in the past and will
not come back.

    Christoph, also happens to be maintainer for the i4l userland in Debian
