    [a lot of good-sounding stuff snipped]

    But, that "driver development kit" seems to be stored more secure than the
    gold in Fort Knox. At least, I was not able to see or get it anywhere. And,
    even though someone could fetch it for Linux it would not be suitable without
    regard of Linux' particularities. So, a "Linux Flexnet Development code
    base", meant as a pile of snippets, code templates and _references_ to more
    general information (eg. on how to write a Linux kernel mode driver) put
    together into one big tarball, would make some sense, I think.

    Cheers, 73
