Summary:  Who wants to write drivers for the Intel RemoteExpress?

Next week, time permitting, I am going to get in touch with the appropriate
people at Intel to attempt to secure the release of RemoteExpress programming
specs.  To aid in my quest, I ask that any interested parties send me a note
detailing their "plans" for this ISDN card.  I am only interested in receiving
mail from programmer/driver hack-types, not from Joe User who wants to know
if the RE will work under 0.99pl12.  Requests from relevant, prominent 
activists (Welsh, Janssen, Becker, Longyear, et al.) will be accepted as well.

I INFINITELY PREFER MAIL TO USENET REPLIES!   MAIL WILL NOT BE OVERLOOKED,
WHILE I ONLY HAVE A FEW MINUTES A DAY TO READ NEWS! 

I am extremely busy at school and am also administrating a championship Hybrid
Electric Vehicle Project, so this (the lobby) will be partially performed by
my co-workers, and I must supply both of them will enough information to help
kick this off and to help wade through the usual mess that is Big Business. :)

I am not guaranteeing this will succeed, but if no one else with sufficient
Intel contacts and/or certification will go to bat, I'm "the last, best hope
for mankind."  (Sorry, bad Babylon5 quote!:)

Get that mail sent _now_!
