I've seen 4 people who say they don't like it, and 3 or 4 (I wasn't counting) who said that they either liked it or at least didn't see anything wrong with it. SO it's not a clear cut as it may appear. Having spent some time in past lives supporting various sensors, I know that there is a crying need for some sort of framework but that doesn't mean that it needs to be this one, or even in the kernel. Maybe we can find someone to arbitrate. We used to have an architecture board for this purpose but we got rid of it. >>
