You will find the contact address of authors of the ULE code in the CVS
history of dvb_net.c. I only did some cleanups to correct some of the
worst coding style violations, and to maintain binary compatibility
for the old dvb_net ioctls. (It's possible that I broke something in
my cleanups, however I can't test it. And if I understand you correctly
the code you are using does not have my cleanups anyway.)
The FEEDTYPE rename was discussed on the list, check the archives.
