State-Changed-From-To: open->analyzed 
State-Changed-By: gibbs 
State-Changed-When: Sun Jul 12 16:43:31 PDT 1998 
State-Changed-Why:  
The BT-950 is a FlashPoint adapter which exports a different software 
interface to the OS than the MultiMaster BusLogic cards that preceeded it. 
As the FreeBSD driver only supports MultiMaster cards, it does not support 
the BT-950.  Support for the FlashPoint adapters is scheduled to be added 
to the new FreeBSD CAM SCSI layer sometime before the end of 1998.  This 
code will be available for both the -stable and -current development branches, 
but will not be available for 2.2.6R.

 It seems the BT-950 driver was never implemented for FreeBSD. Is there
 still interest in a driver for such an old chipset, or should this PR
 be closed?

State-Changed-When: Fri Aug 20 17:02:18 UTC 2010 
State-Changed-Why:  
The BusLogic BT-950 (and other models using this same architecture) are 
sufficiently old, that it makes little sense to devote some of our scarce 
resources to support them.
