And I just happen to be the "expert" because I roamed around at the right moment with the right book, so we clearly have a dream team here!

One of things I've guessed from the current driver is that in previous incarnations, the mbxdaemon was in kernel-space. My guess is that TI split the driver in two pieces: they made the mbxdaemon with the "cannot-ever-possibly-be-GPL" code, and released all the other parts in the mbxaccess kernel module (the previous, all in one driver was called simply `mbx.ko'). I just hope the performance out of this split is acceptable...

Also other than a mailing list I'd also ask putting the kernel module sources in a repo (they're GPLv2 after all).

All my tests have been done on a N810.
