I think CAM is a very bad example. We *still* don't have all the
drivers we had, and that includes at least one reasonably requested
driver.

On the other hand, I don't see we losing anything with newbus, which
is quite a feat given the extent of the changes. Moreover, I have
seen very few problems reported. Changing the compiler to egcs seems
to have produced more waves, in fact.

It seems to work on my computer. Why do you say it isn't ready? A
reality check seems to be in order. It would seem you are peeved
because some of the very few gliches affected you.
