I am currently working on the aic driver. I am doing this in my free
time, and nobody is paying me to do this. I have a job, a wife and a
child, in short a life. I am making progress although not as much as I
would like. I am sure that at some point if I do not deliver, others will
get impatient with me and step in.
Aic will be supported under CAM but it will not be in 3.0.
