how long has this thread been going on and how many of you have read the
whole thing.

all Jeff has done is coordeinate patches to the tulip.c driver in the 2.3.x
kernel, with some of his own, basically if you have some input into the code
pass your patch along to Jeff.

why is it Jeffs fault that some one came up with a pci interface(this person
already laid claim to this) and passed it along to linus.  

As for Donald his my hero. But everything that has been said from these two
leads me to believe that neither did anything wrong one just got there patch
in first.  It's not as if there needs to be a fight about it, if you have
some idea about tulip.c are the pci interface why not test and send your own
patch straight to linus.

My 2cents.
