In that case, I'll try to test the new INF files on various Windows
versions and will probably send updated patchset to the list.

Someone has to do that. If there's someone who knows that stuff it'll
be a sin not to use his expertise. :)

Wow... Honestly, 56 pages? They sure know how to make "openssl dgst
-sign" complicated...

I'll have to put that on my TODO list thought it may take some time till
I get to singing drivers.

I *personally* see how it may be a problem for _any_ corporation since
singing is like saying "yes, we guarantee it won't destroy your computer
nor it will summon demons" and by releasing signed driver you in effect
loose control over it. Again, further signature investigations are on
my TODO list.
