SubjectESS Maestro sound driver

I posed this earlier and got no response. The OSS driver is really
bad. It has hisses and crackles. OSS guys are working on it. I really
would like to know what the status is?

I read that Alan Cox was working on an ESS Maestro sound
driver at
http://www.linux.org.uk/diary/
Alan wrote on June 10th:
I get a lot of people with ESS maestro
cards asking
me about the state of the Maestro driver.
Maestro.c in 2.2.9ac4 is most of a driver,
it needs
the mixer writing and it needs fixing so the
DMA ring buffer works right. I've simply
not had
time to do this. I don't expect to have
time to
finish it in the near future either.
Various people
have asked about taking it over - feel free but
if
you do please let people on
linux-kernel@vger.rutgers.edu
know so that we get one Maestro
project.

Does anyone know the progress of this? ...
I would really like to try the new driver. Sound is the
only thing
keeping my Windows partition around (I could use the disk
space!)
