Yes, this is what I meant.

I think it is _alright_ too, I don't think it would be a hardship on
most people. I can imagine someone writing something and separating out
the USB related CONFIG statements to their USB object, but I personally
think of the configuration bytes as a per project thing, not a per
module thing.

I haven't heard about any of these patches from anyone either than you,
so I will wait until there is feedback from the maintainers, and keep
them on my page until then. Thanks a lot for your help.

hehe - I see.

I dunno.
