Yes, now you can have module version 0.3 for kernels 2.0.36
and 2.2.10 compiled.
We will have sources (compiled core + some sources platform indep.
to be compiled in various versions of kernel) in the first q. 2000.

It will not be open sourced completely but if it will work
I think I will not mind it... I think some source to be compiled
on various kernels will be enough for me. I did not say I like
this non-free model but what can I do with it ?
