No, nothing planned by us for supporting this. Technotrend does not 
release any information about their cards and they are using their
own programmable logic chip on the NOVA-CI.

On the other hand, KNC1 does release information and writing support 
for their CI interface is on our list. I think they also plan to 
release DVB-C and DVB-T cards.
Right now some other projects delayed our work on this. We also
don't know yet in what form (maybe binary only) it will be possible
to release this.
