I'm happy to see people work on a more evolved solution than m-a, but package maintainers switching from one to another should be the ones supporting the upgrade path for their users, rather than the abandoned framework's maintainer. :) > Please consider modifying module-assistant so that it recognizes > both old-style module source packages and DKMS-style module source > packages and allows building both kinds in a unified way.

First, I've nothing against it, and I'll take patches with pleasure; but I'm not sure I'm going to dig myself into dkms to extract stuff they could have put into m-a in the first place to support this. I don't exclude it, though; I'm not sure about spare time and so on. Mraw, KiBi.
