Oi Otavio,

Honestly: I would like to go this way first because:

* it is WIP - and there are known bugs (e.g USB-Host has to move to 'Open')
* working on linux-fslc is more effort for me - and I am under massive
pressure really (from all the product-or-whatever-managers and
shiny-teeth-sales-people)
* have not seen much community in this corner area

Since we (our company) decided to go 'mainline kernel/graphic-stack'
way, chances are very high that I'll continue work on this :)

And promised: Once ironed out I'll send patches to linux -fslc and
later -mainline.

Regards

Andreas
