I did try to add support for interrupts with I2C block transactions. This however caused various nasty problems.
That made me first want to test and implement basic interrupt support before going there again. When I know for sure the basics work correctly and stable (and when I know for sure I haven't made very stupid coding mistakes), I'll try again to add support for block transactions :). > Yeah, Mark has been traveling a lot in time lately.
