I have based my report on the upstream ChangeLog which tells only about the new drivers and bug fixes. The debdiff really looks like a major rewrite.

I will look whether one can add the new drivers independently. Otherwise I will simply reupload this version on the day when Hardy+1 archives get opened so that this code gets full six months of testing.

The author also does not support the distributions very well. Once he refuses to give version numbers to his driver and second, he discourages using the packages coming with distros. Perhaps I should talk with him more about the advantages of binary packaging and distro integration.
