Yes, Stephane works on usb-setup and hotplug, me on more driver option and
multiple screen support.

It seems good. Maybe /sys support in order to choose which is right and
middle button ?

I can step backward and split my work into patchs.
Should I make these patch against current xorg version or
steph 1.0.6 version ? Xorg I think
I plan to make 4 patchs, the last 3 depending on the first :
- Use of driver->flags bits for ACECAD_USB, ACECAD_HOTPLUG, ACECAD
ABSOLUTE, INVX, INVY ... do you agree ?
- Option INVX, INVY, SWAPXY
- Option Bordersize which reduce area of tablet in order to reach screen
border
- Multiple Head and Xinerama support
