Sorry to follow up my posting, but I received a couple of replies that let
me think that the 'subject' section of the posting was unclear.
'Experimental' applies to the 'changes' and not to the `sym' driver.

Basically, the 'changes' in sym-1.3.0 against driver version in -current
are still in 'experimental' status since they are not tested enough, in my
opinion. The global status of the driver is just the usual one that
applies to softwares since day one:
         'seems to work just fine until proven to be broken'. :-)

Sorry for the bandwidth waste,
  G=E9rard.
