Slightly delayed while USB NDIS was sorted out, I will be moving ahead with disabling the build of all IFF_NEEDSGIANT drivers in HEAD later today.

01 April 2009           Remove all IFF_NEEDSGIANT drivers from 8.x

And this date is probably going to remain about the same.

Anyone who is interested is welcome to step in and update/fix drivers on the removal path at any time, and drivers can also be restored later easily if drivers are updated outside the tree as well.

Thanks,
