Netware has bee dead for years. Time to deprecate IPX and the
Novell file system.
Stephen Hemminger (2):
ipx: move Novell IPX protocol support into staging
ncpfs: move net/ncpfs to drivers/staging/ncpfs

The Netware IPX protocol is very old and no one should still be using
it. It is time to move it into staging for a while and eventually
decommision it.
Note: net/ipx.h has to be kept around because bonding is still
using it to decode IPX header for LAG.

The Netware Core Protocol is a file system that talks to
Netware clients over IPX. Since IPX has been dead for many years
move the file system into staging for eventual interment.

Can you also add TODO files for these two new directories much like
staging/irda/TODO has?
If so, no objection from me at all for this!
thanks,

Hi,
NCP and ncpfs can actually run over UDP and TCP too, so there is
no hard IPX dependency.
Saying that, I think that ncpfs fully deserves being removed/obsoleted.
It is pretty hard to find hardware on which NetWare can still run, most
of distributions do not ship userspace tools anymore, and as far as
I can tell there are zero users.
So feel free to go ahead and do what you got to do...
Thanks,
Petr
P.S.: Sorry if you get it multiple times. I could not figure out how to
make gmail app to not send text/html :-( Hopefully now from computer
I can send it as text/plain.
