[etherlab-users] Linux device driver for Beckhoff CX2100-0004 powermodule

[Steven Hartmann]

Hi Graeme,

Thank you for the patch.  I see you submitted this to the list over 7 months
ago, but it doesn¹t appear to be in the repository yet.  Is this going to
make it into the repository at some point in time?

Thanks,

Steven
