and also eg. tulip 0.89x

Could the authors state, what functionality is needed to be added to reach
1.0 state for these 0.x drivers? Or why else are the version numbers this
weird?

If anybody (not knowing, that linux has the drivers for all (almost ;) eg.
netcards in the kernel) goes searching for drivers for his/her netcard,
probably gets to Donald's site, and there what does he/she see?

This is an old card (tulip 10Mbps for ex.). The driver itself is also some
3 years old. Now what do these linux developers do, that for so long they
still have not reached 1.0???
