I remember mkp had some interested in reactivating that driver, is that
still true? I'd prefer to kill it from the tree and re-merge it if
we get a sane one, but the current one is doing far to bad things that
I'd want to waste any ressources on it when moving the remaining drivers
over to the current APIs.

HP agrees with the recommendation to remove cpqfc from the tree until it can be fully 2.6 compliant.

Does this mean HP is still supporting the driver and has plan to
resurrect the 2.6 version?

We seem to have a small base of interested parties. As of right now we would like to revive the driver. Management may change that :( in the near/far future.
