Due to time, too many other projects and a beginning level of driver development knowledge (someday I will fix this part :)), I do not feel I can continue on it. To help others get a little further, I put up a description of the status[1] on my web site. Many thanks to Orlando Bassotto's effort on a port of 4.5.2 from which I started.
