The modules are built by a separate source package now, so they don't
have to be rebuilt every time an update concerning only userspace
stuff is made. The process is automated so it shouldn't be very
laborious anymore.
I've also created an Alioth project with a Subversion repository for
pcmcia-cs. If you want to work on the package again, just ask me and
I'll add you.

That's good news, I do have some questions about pcmcia-cs.
