[usbip-devel] usbip.sourceforge.net page is not current

[Benjamin D. <ben...@gm...>]

I'd like to fixup the main web page for the project to update the fact that
no further linux development is happening at sourceforge. And to clarify
how to make the windows client actually work with modern linux versions.

Currently the data on where development is happening is in the message
boards and mailing list. But for people getting exposed to the project for
the first time it looks quite dead. However the opposite is true because it
has been merged into the staging area of the linux kernel itself.

The first quote on the page says "Download the latest version" with a link
to the long dead repo on sourceforge instead of to the staging area of the
linux kernel.

We also need to fix the current "latest version" of the windows client. A
fix has been contributed (commit r191) that allows usbip.exe to work with
modern linux versions without re-compiling the driver (which is signed and
quite stable). This would be a simple update to one file in the released
.zip that would allow the 500+ people/week downloading to be able to
actually use it without modifying the linux version strings as found here:

Someone has also contributed a fix in the forums for a BSOD in windows,
this needs to be committed to the windows driver so we can start testing
the fix. I would love to become a contributor and keep this side of the
project alive.
