Maxです

交渉した甲斐あって、Klaus Knopper氏がapt-get sourceできるような形で
パッケージプールを作ってくれるという話になりそうです。
2月以降彼は多忙だそうで、早々に取りかかるとのこと。

最新版にキャッチアップするなら、流れの速い本家に対してちょっとした余裕が
できる事になるのでタイミング的にラッキーかな:-)

The perl script used for merging may look quite obscure. It is used to add
entries not present in the original pcitable, plus replace entries that
are not correct (at least if you have a "normal" kernel) by the ones
given in pcitable-knoppix.

Great. I can't set an exact timeframe for this, though, since February
is already full for me with other tasks.
