I think that it dovetails nicely with the work I'm > doing for devd. Yes, my understanding of the goal of devd is that. Also I understand that NEWCARD users will be eager for suggested features until devd development is completed. So I'll leave the patches for such a people for a while at: http://people.freebsd.org/~iwasaki/pccard/cbb-pccardc-power-support-20021029.diff BTW, I think that some developers are interested in devd.
