The dabusb driver was conceived as an experimental driver for a test
device. The driver never supported any shipped product, and, while
there were some updates for it in 2003, for an ancient product,
those changes were never submitted upstream.
Also, there's no DocBook for its API, nor any upstream discussion.

This is an initial staging driver for the GMA500. It's been stripped out
of the PVR drivers and crunched together from various bits of code and
different kernels.
Currently it's unaccelerated but still pretty snappy even compositing with
the frame buffer X server.
Lots of work is needed to rework the ttm and bo interfaces from being
ripped out and then 2D acceleration wants putting back for framebuffer and
somehow eventually via DRM.
There is no support for the parts without open source userspace (video
accelerators, 3D) as per kernel policy.

For all I know, Appletalk is dead, the only reasonable
use right now would be nostalgia, and that can be served
well enough by old kernels. The code is largely not
in a bad shape, but it still uses the big kernel lock,
and nobody seems motivated to change that.
FWIW, the last release of MacOS that supported Appletalk
was MacOS X 10.5, made in 2007, and it has been abandoned
by Apple with 10.6. Using TCP/IP instead of Appletalk has
been supported since MacOS 7.6, which was released in
1997 and is able to run on most of the legacy hardware.

This is submitted as a staging driver because there is a more generic driver
"on the way" for all these devices and has been for some time. The intent is
that as soon as the general drivers are in the mainstream this one will get
any leftovers integrated and then be dumped. Until this unspecified future
data at least people can actually use their hardware.
As its interface is simply input layer we can do that without pain.

The driver author seems to not worked on this driver since its conversion
from 2.2 to 2.4. Nobody is known to have a stradis hardware for testing. As
it still uses V4L1 API, BKL and probably some other old stuff, someone would
need to work on it to preserve the driver. Instead of investing time and
efforts to keep porting it to work with new API's, it seems better to just
drop the driver.
So, let's move it to drivers/staging and label it to die at 2.6.38, if nobody
cares enough to port parallel port support to gspca or to create a new driver
that uses the same gspca-cpia sub-driver.

functionality that were not migrated is the support for parallel port,
as:
1) the developer didn't find any hardware;
2) it doesn't seem important to keep support for a parallel port webcam,
as this is an obsolete technology;
3) the changes at gspca for it to work with parallel port would be very large;
4) this driver still uses BKL.
