Hi Konrad,

I'm reworking the interconnect driver based on earlier feedback, but 
running
into some regressions I need to tackle first. The driver I had was 
stable,
the reworked one has some issues that I'm trying to tackle before 
submitting
another version. The minimum rate will probably disappear as a result of 
that
anyway.

Thanks,
Herman
