[openbeos] Re: SCSI support

Hello Ithamar,

1) Build an R5 SCSI wrapper (like ZETA has)
2) Depreciate the R5 SCSI bus manager interface.

Now I know Haiku was going for maximum binary compatibility but in this
case I would vote against option 1. From experience I can say that it is
quite a hack, and we've got source for 3 out of 4 of the SCSI modules in
SVN now (one of those is the usb_scsi module, which is the only 3rd
party SCSI module that I'm aware of) so we would loose little.
Anyway I have plans to adapt my usb_scsi code for Haiku as soon as Haiku USB will be up. So I personally vote for 2 too. :-)
