LDP and comedi

Hello:

The folks over at the Linux Driver Project (led by Greg K-H) are
interested in pulling the comedi project into the mainline Linux
kernel.  Is there general interest among the comedi developers in
doing this?

 From what I can tell, the main sticking points would be:

1. Support for a wide range of kernel versions.  I don't imagine that
this is a big deal for 2.6.x, but are there a lot of people still
using comedi with 2.4.x?

2. Tight integration with RTAI (does RTLinux still work?).  I know
that this has been an important feature in my work with comedi...

It sounds like there is some enthusiasm on the part of the LDP folks
for this.  I don't know that I'd have enough time to help out very
much, but seeing as I was on both mailing lists, I thought I'd get the
conversation started.

What do you guys think?
