Dear everybody,

today I found this in just uploaded MTP syncronization program on
Hobbes (by nikk):

4. Bugs And Limitations
_______________________

There are plenty. First and foremost, the
usbresmg.sys/usbcalls.dll do not allow zero byte transfers which
are quite practised in mtpsync underlying usb libraries. I am
eager to fix it, but, although the sources available somewhere, i
failed to find that place of availability...

Anybody knowing the answer?

Thanks,
Ilya

Dmitry Froloff who maintained this treated it like it was his own
private property and never released his updated source code, even
though it was supposed to be open source. If you or your compatriot
could get that (and publish it), you'd be doing us a great favor.
There are some bugs in there that I too would like to fix.

The driver was developed by Markus Montekofski (sorry misspelled).

Contact Rudiger Ihle r.ihle@s-t.(remove_this)de
Quite recent code for usbresmg.sys should be in SVN for Netlabs somewhere.

I'm well aware of that. However, the last 4 or 5 versions were created
by Froloff. The version that you're distributing with eCS is his.

If it's there, I can't get at it because it requires a password
(why read-only access has to be password protected is beyond me).
The last time I looked (2 years ago), Netlabs just had Markus's
very old and tired code. Rudi, if you have anything newer, please
let us know!

This repository has the code:

http://svn.netlabs.org/usb

The reason this repository is closed is because it contains USB code
from the DDK from IBM. And we know what the license states about making
code public. Contact Rudiger to see what code is in there. From what I
understood its more up to date code then the code from Markus.

Thats all I can realy do.
