I could provide the schematics and someone could make their own prints, but as all of the parport boards are pretty much the same anyway, it doesn't really have any advantages compared to the one in Documentation/i2c/busses/i2c-parport. The reason why I would like it included is simply that it doesn't harm anyone and it would make it easier for us since it's used by several people - some without much Linux mojo, so having it in the mainline kernel would be nice instead of having to patch the kernels.
