Hi Bob,

I'm not sure if MS will let you post this code as a completely
open-sources variation on sourceforge - but having the ability
to have multiple people working on such a thing with versioning
etc. would really be helpful.

Like I wrote before I would figure it to be a really good
idea that MS ships this drivers as sample in future DDKs
and also in form of a binary as part of the standard-distribution
of the OS (but this is possibly wishful thinking ;-)

This would also solve the problem of signing the code for
64bit usage...

Tobias
