No, Wayne would do it, even if he may not already know this... Seriously, I
remember Wayne wanted to access this controller using jallib. He potentially
planned to implement a library for this, eventually integrated to jallib.

This was my first intention...

Lot of work, sure... Too much things to do :) About copyright issue, I'm
still not so sure there aren't any, but I remember Wayne saying it was ok
(or not...). Wayne, can you light our lanterns ? (french expression)

We can start with a minimalistic subset, and them upgrade 'til full protocol
is implemented. This would be of course free, as in beer and freedom, but I
would prefer use BSD for this. Not ZLIB. Because this is a final
application. As samples. Same for servo controller. So:

  - do you agree to use BSD ?
  - where would we put this ? Not exactly a sample, a whole
project/application. On the other side, if we write this as a test, we may
be able to generate many LCD controller code for many PIC. Do we need a
"jalapp" section, for applications or projects built with jallib, (and which
embrace JSG) ?

 Yeah, now I know :)
