 TMI completed these driver changes of a year ago and has since been maintaining
 it.  Silicon Labs was to push these changes through to the mainline kernel, but
-this clearly has not happened yet.  TMI is slowly working with linux-usb
-developers to adapt our local enhancements for suitability for inclusion into
-the mainline driver.  Meanwhile, TMI will continue to maintain its branch of
-the cp210x driver.  The `cp210x-module-dkms` package in the APT repository has
-been tested on Ubuntu Hardy, Karmic and Lucid systems, with both 32 and 64 bit
+this clearly has not happened yet.  TMI has had some discussions with the
+linux-usb developers, and a decent number of changes need to be made before
+they will include our modifications upstream.  Specifically, they want to see
+all ioctl calls replaced with other mechanisms.  We hope to allocate some time
+to work on these issues in the future.  Meanwhile, TMI will continue to
+maintain its branch of the cp210x driver.  The `cp210x-module-dkms` package in
+the APT repository has been tested on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy Heron), 9.10
+(Karmic Koala) and 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) systems, having both 32 and 64 bit
 x86 (Intel/AMD) processors.
