This is just plain ridiculous, Dave. Even ignoring your snide remarks, you have in no way shown that Chris is not doing his job as moderator of .announce. There WAS a task force that was going to try to resolve all of this for us - to come up with a single common API for the console driver. And once again, you show quite clearly that you have not bothered to check your facts. I was on the console mailing list; I know what happened. They got stuck in the rathole of trying to design the ultimate driver and never actually produced a usable spec or code to match.
