Which I really consider a pitty!
I believe I have incorporated every change I made in the DVB driver
into the corresponding place in the dvb-kernel driver, too - even
though I don't use the dvb-kernel version myself. Since the DVB driver
still _is_ widely used (and certainly will be for quite a while!) I
would expect the same in the opposite direction from other developers...

I'm not sure what you mean here. Since the API is the same, what should VDR
have to worry about which driver version you use?
