Those files are ancient - I haven't done anything on them in yonks; the 
right person to ask about this is Ian Molton - current maintainer of the 
ARM26/Archimedes world cc'd).

Hi there.

Im not sure whats best here. those files *are* ancient, and likely 
differ somewhat from those in my current tree. I have done most of the 
restructuring of arm26 now, but its still not quite actually *working* 
yet. I have a whole diff full of driver updates and even some new 
drivers, but Im reluctant to submit them at this point for a number of 
reasons, not least of which is that they are often untested and some 
conflict with mainstream arm.

I guess we could either:

leave them alone
update them
delete them pending me re-inserting working versions at some later date
other

So the MAINTAINERS entry:

ARM MFM AND FLOPPY DRIVERS
P:	Dave Gilbert
M:	linux@treblig.org
S:	Maintained

should be changed to:

ARM MFM AND FLOPPY DRIVERS
P:	Ian Molton
M:	spyro@f2s.com
S:	Maintained

Or should the entry be deleted?

Jim

Yep - change it; it is really just whoever maintains ARM26.
