The developer version will only support one driver API officially,
and that's the "multiproto" API.

It wouldn't be left out of the developer version (which would then be
numbered 1.7.x).

The question was whether there is enough demand for a stable version
*now*, based on what is in version 1.5.14, but without the switch
to DVB-S2 (and thus the "multiproto" driver).


So far there have been 19 votes here on the list, 11 No and 8 Yes.

I have asked the same question over on vdrportal.de, and there the
situation looks a lot different: 90 votes, 70 Yes, 20 No.

For the final result all votes given here on the ML and on vdrportal.de
will be added up.
