Sorry if this is not the correct forum for this particular question, but
here it goes:
I am currently trying to get documentation on the protocol format for
the Kingsun KS-959 USB IrDA (07d0:4959) dongle. This dongle is
non-standard in many ways. See this post by me to see what I mean:

I have previously written an IrDA driver for a Kingsun/Donshine dongle,
with help from linux-usb-devel, and it has finally been accepted for the
2.6.22 kernel. Now I want to write the driver for this other dongle, but
its obfuscated protocol is so strange that I have not been able (yet) to
figure it out. So I want to locate the manufacturer of the chipset, in
order to ask them for the documentation for the protocol. There are many
Kingsun references on Google, but of the two selling USB devices I have
tried so far, none have answered my emails (if they even manufacture
this particular USB dongle). So I thought I would ask you on whether you
have stumbled on the precise manufacturer website (if any), or whether
you know where to find documentation on this dongle.
This blog post was made by Manuel F. Argüelles, who also has one of
those dongles:
