Not sure what you mean by this question ? Are you asking how to compile it in yourself? Or are you asking why it's not included in our current builds ?

I would say slim to none.

Test? No - we know what it doesn't do right, we don't need more people to confirm this for us.

Help with? Yes - fix the problems with it.

The Rockbox USB stack won't be in 3.0 (gevaerts did lots of work on the USB stack).

Rockbox has gone into feature freeze, which means no new features will get into the release, just bug fixes.

I guess one specific thing you could do is compile a build with the USB stack enabled, and hunt for bugs.

I wanted to know what the remaining issues are, which need to be fixed before it can be enabled by default.

I'm tempted to enable the USB stack in my own builds (I run ipodvideo and h10_5gb), I just want to know what the (known) issues are, and what to look out for (eg. X should work, but Y is known to be broken).

Also I can't find any documentation on the USB serial interface.  The PortalPlayerUsb wiki page explains how to connect (with cu) but not what you can do with it. :-)  Or is this just a logging (read-only) rather than a debugging interface?
