Linux Device driver article (was Linux guru needed to write device driver. Burlington, Massachusetts.)



Just a note on this thread: 
 
   There is an article, "Generating Linux Device Drivers with CodeSketch" in the
April edition of C/C++ Users Journal (www.cuj.com). I've only read the intro, but
it appears to be written by someone new to device drivers, having previously coded
in application land.
