Sure, feel free to submit monitor database entries for any monitors
you find that are not present already.  Even if you don't own the
display, someone out there probably does, so having them in the
database would be very helpful indeed.  ;)  Anyone who has some
spare time to volunteer is welcome to submit entries in bugzilla 
anytime, and we'll add them to future builds.  It's probably ok
to submit multiple entries or .INFs in a single report too, as
they can be done in a single commit/update likely.

Perhaps we could have a contest or something, and see who can
submit the most monitor entries.  ;o)

Take care,
