Hello Jack,
you are right, i misunderstood your meaning. you must appreciate that
the phrase 'out of business' means more recently than it used to. :)
8-) Ok, I'm glad that we solved our misunderstanding so quickly.
now i understand. i guess as long as the transition is well done,
i'd not personally have any heartburn with such a move.
however, after bill's contribution, this would have to clearly
be his choice rather than peer pressure to go faster, IMHO.
Of course. I remember Bill's efforts very well and I'm still very glad
that he did this first step and the initial code + the excellent "demo
driver".
But: users are searching for informations and they are getting confused.
They find Bill's site and try to use the informations and drivers, but
will fail for example with both bttv-0.7 (because it's v4l1) and
bttv-0.9 (because it's new v4l2).
I never wanted to shut down anything, simply change the site so it
reflects the lasted developments.
certainly a recent objective, thanks for your quick explanation.
And remember: I volunteered to do the dirty work... ;-)
