Yes, well, I was driven by the coming of 4.0.... My *original* plans for
4.0 was to do a complete rewrite of the tape driver using the HP sponsored
TAPEALERT initiative, but I've had only a fraction of the time available.
So, what with fixing some bugs, trying to make sure that subdevices come
back with latchable settings, that'll probably be it for tape in 4.0.
