And here is a repeat question from me:

I'm wondering whether somebody is working on getting Julian's latest 
scsi into current ?
The user-level cmd's looks promising, and I would love having it.

Do I have to do it myself ?

In correspondance with Julian he writes:
>>it may compile under NetBSD 0.9 (I'm porting it to NetBSD 1.0)
>>but some work will need to be done on the user-level scsi

Julian's note about NetBSD 1.0 could take a little explaining.

When is it planned for and what is the content/differences ?

kim
