:Lennart, Matt, Barry, USB hackers,
:
:On FreeBSD we have added vendor descriptiosn fo teh form
:XYZ electrical corp.
:
:where on NetBSD the same ID may be described as "XYZ"
:
:Is there a reason to go one way or the other?
:I'd rather not be different for no reason, but I'm loath to
:just discard information.
:
:thoughts?

    Well, the expanded definitions could be defined as 'progress', so I'd
    probably stick with them and maybe submit a patch back to NetBSD to
    bring NetBSD in synch with the better names.
