o       Lots of people want to keep the existing API as the basis
o       The Buz folks did a really nice codec API
o       Stephen Tweedie got rid of all the existing constraints of DMA to
        user space

Im working on putting a proposal together: Basically

-       Original V4L interfaces
-       V4L2/Buz multiple buffer posting (non mmap)
-       V4L2 format descriptions/table
-       V4L2 style enumerate supported formats
-       Buz codec setup/control - done in a style like the Stradis if possible
-       Stradis V4L extensions for remote input/media control
