Then it was advertised very badly. At least there has been no PowerPoint
presentation for everybody to look up - unlike Arwinss ;-)
Honestly, when a ReactOS developer was asked about USB, the answer was
always something like "nobody is currently working on it" or "it will
come at a later stage". For me, this driver always looked like a
skeleton or template for a better USB support, not something that shall
be usable for ROS.
In fact, I'm surprised that I haven't been thinking about it earlier
given that the driver is included in every ReactOS build for years.
Of course, these points should be moot now that a real USB stack is
approaching.
But my comments may still serve as hints for others. Developers, be glad
about your work and spread the word when milestones like this are
reached with so visible benefits for the users!
