MGE UPS SYSTEMS was the previous NUT sponsor, from 2002 until its partial
acquisition by Eaton. They provided protocols information, many units for
development of NUT-related projects.
Several drivers such as mge-utalk, mge-shut, snmp-ups, hidups, and usbhid-ups
are the result of this collaboration, in addition to the WMNut, MGE HID Parser
the libhid projects, … through Arnaud Quette (who was also an MGE employee).
All the MGE supporters have gone with Eaton (through MGE Office Protection
Systems), which was temporarily the new NUT sponsor.

have enough information about the situation. Developers are kindly requested
to report vendor contributions to the NUT team so this list may reflect their
help, as well as convey a sense of official support (at least, that drivers
were proposed according to the know-how coming from specs and knowledge about
hardware and firmware capabilities, and not acquired via reverse engineering
with a certain degree of unreliability and incompleteness). If we have left
you out, please send us some mail or post a pull request to update this
