			* Convert files to UTF-8.
  * Also correct some people's names
    (one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
    indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
    which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
    7bit.)
  * Correct town names (Goettingen -> Göttingen)
  * Update Eberhard Mönkeberg's address (http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/8/313)

| STATUS:
 | |
| 
 | |
| o	The core setup works within limits.
 | |
| o	The scsi layer seems to almost work. 
 | |
|            I'm still chasing down the hang bug.
 | |
| o	The block OSM is mostly functional
 | |
| o	LAN OSM works with FDDI and Ethernet cards.
 | |
| 
 | |
| TO DO:
 | |
| 
 | |
| General:
 | |
| o	Provide hidden address space if asked
 | |
| o	Long term message flow control
 | |
| o	PCI IOP's without interrupts are not supported yet
 | |
| o	Push FAIL handling into the core
 | |
| o	DDM control interfaces for module load etc
 | |
| o       Add I2O 2.0 support (Deffered to 2.5 kernel)
 | |
| 
 | |
| Block:
 | |
| o	Multiple major numbers
 | |
| o	Read ahead and cache handling stuff. Talk to Ingo and people
 | |
| o	Power management
 | |
| o	Finish Media changers
 | |
| 
 | |
| SCSI:
 | |
| o	Find the right way to associate drives/luns/busses
 | |
| 
 | |
| Lan:	
 | |
| o	Performance tuning
 | |
| o	Test Fibre Channel code
 | |
| 
 | |
| Tape:
 | |
| o	Anyone seen anything implementing this ?
