- Unfortunately not always in practice as I found out during Envoy
- work. :-/ Some devices do not support the current SANA-II Release 2
- standard (S2R2), some do have severe problems handling a simple

- reopened, some have side effects and work only on thursdays with a
- full moon when it's raining. Things improve, but slow. Oh well.

- Just to clarify things. Michael and I agreed to support only a
- single a2065.device for both INet and Envoy. The intention is to
- avoid a ton of different devices for the same thing. I sent him my
- patches for 3.2 and we will continue to exchange fixes to keep
- only one a2065.device current. Currently I don't know of any more
- problems with the a2065.device. What I'd like to say with all of
- this is that this common device will be shipped with future
- versions and updates to Envoy just like with INet. We are trying to
- avoid support headaches. :^)
