Hi all,

I'm currently working on updating the hardware release notes to reflect
reality. the puc device is currently only in the i386 section of the
release notes, however I am under the impression people are successfully
using it with other platforms. Can anyone confirm this?

Also, is anyone successfully using it to provide parallel port access? As
far as I can tell, the device supports parallel ports, all the comments in
the code suggests it does, however I can't find any mention of people
using it for parallel ports and commit messages suggest it may be limited
to serial ports only at the moment.

Thanks!

Gavin
