I did not promise anything. I stated that we are working on it. And I stated
that we had not discussions on how to publish such a development:

"This is partially true. We're working on a CA/CI framework in the area of
device drivers, middleware and MHP now and will implement it as soon as
possible.

AFAIR there were no discussions at convergence if and how to publish such a
development until now."

I would also like to mention that we have in addition to the public CVS
servers also internal ones. Although there was less traffic in the public
CVS of LinuxTV.org in the last time (vacations), other development keeps
moving! Take a look at the CVS of DirectFB.org. Unfortunatly I can not
unveil the details of our internal development, but we proccess quickly.

Wait and see or call our CEO :-).

Bye... Szymon.
