The SUN FCAL support has been non-working for ages and needs major work to keep up with scsi API changes. Is anyone planning to ressurect it midterm? If not I'd like to remove it from the tree.

Feel free to remove it, interested parties can resurrect the source really easily.

If it is that easy could someone tell me what needs doing please ? I am NOT a kernel programmer but given a little handholding and a list of what to do I can build and test it here.
I also have a spare set of hardware if someone in the UK with the needed skills would like it. Sorry, but the disk array is a bit heavy to ship elsewhere. If someone already has the array I will mail a card anywhere.
We need this if we are ever to get the Sun4D working again. Keith now has a contact for the missing info to get Sun4D working properly, but without the fc, soc and pluto it will be rather restricted in usefulness.
