lirc drivers out of tree forever?

[Anders Eriksson]

Being a lirc user and trying to follow kernel stable releases, I asked the 
lirc folks about their plans for eventual intrgration of the kernel releated 
parts into the kernel tree.

http://www.nabble.com/kernel-integration-plans--td17171980.html

The tail end of that thread suggests that there is an active drive to push 
drivers _out_ of the kernel. Is that really the case, and is it the desired 
way forward?

IMHO, anything that calls itself a driver for a piece of hw should be in the
kernel.
