but I think it
is entirely appropriate
to point out that that they almost certainly don't meet the bus specs, even
though that probably will affect only a small fraction of users.
Who is that fraction? For me it currently looks like the empty set. So
for me the bus driver discussion is as much of secondary interest as it
could be.
And I insist: Throwing up this bus driver thing again and again
discourages people.
I think your perspective may be Omnibus-centric. I basically agree
with you for the Omnibus, Posibus, and Posibus Data Break busses.
Those busses are relatively poorly specified, and generally fairly
short. Indeed, the Omnibus configuration guide only discusses
systems with 1 or 2 boxes.
However, discussions of bus drivers for Unibus and Qbus still seem
relevant.
