We will try to rewrite the ones that are still commonly needed and 
extend them to support the latest hardware - examples for this are not 
only IDE, but also graphics drivers, USB, FireWire, networking drivers, 
sound drivers etc.
As you can see in the repository, there are already some of them.

Adios...
