There are probably a number of LAD programmers with the interest,

expertise and time to develop hardware drivers.
Perhaps the consortium could serve as a focal point to provide

hardware vendors.  Start out with one or two test cases: match

up willing vendors with interested developers.  Shepherd the

process through with the kernel developers.  Etc.
