lirc_mceusb2 is buggy and leaks memory:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1868795&group_id=5444&atid=105444lirc_imon does not work with some new devices, but no patch has been
submitted yet to add support.
lirc_gpio: I'm not sure whether to try getting this patch to the kernel to
make lirc_gpio work again:
http://lirc.sourceforge.net/software/snapshots/lirc-bttv-linux-2.6.24.patchor simply to drop lirc_gpio
Some of the usb and i2c drivers can be also implemented in user-space. I'm
not sure whether to try pushing development in this direction where
possible.
But there is nothing that should stop anyone from submitting patches
upstream. Whether they will be anything near to being accepted is another
story, but it's well worth the try. And no, I still don't have any time to
do this.
