Well, Kurt, thanks for the offer. I am prepared and willing to do the work on supporting the driver, but I am, perhaps, not skilled enough to be a maintainer of a SCSI LDD. My knowledge of the SCSI protocol and the SCSI Linux subsystem is pretty limited. On one hand, the driver is little used, so, even if I badly break something it is not likely to cause major problems. On the other hand, I would feel more comfortable if, at least at the beginning, somebody would review my patches. Besides, it would be a good opportunity for me to really learn a bit more about SCSI, SCSI Linux driver, BIO,... oh well...
Thanks Guennadi --- Guennadi Liakhovetski
