Wb.

The new driver API is not yet finalized, and you shouldn't use it for
now until you write drivers that need additional functionality like IDE
/SCSI driver and the USB stack. There probably might not be any big
changes anymore, but there certainly will be changes in several areas
including virtual vs. physical memory, driver loading/initialization,
called from kernel vs. called from userland.

Do you mean changing the Haiku Driver Model for R1? Or are you just talking down the track?
