A prepositional word in the English language, as
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/of tells me. And it's used quite often placed
2nd.
Just see http://ask.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/03/03/028258
If it ___really___ ought to be short worded, at least have it OFW.
(Or make it drivers/ieee1275 so it can make friends with ieee1394)
But I still discourage of. The next thing people want for their
not-so-open firmware is drivers/f.
