caseyse member Registered: 07/10/2000 Posts: 112 Loc: CA, USA	Sept. Issue of Linux Journal, in the "What's New In Kernel Development" column, Zack Brown drops Mark Lord's name in reference to AXFS real-live systems development. I suspect he's refering to 'the Mark Lord' we all know.

The article also indicates you were the initial creator and earliest maintainer of the IDE subsystem. That's impressive, I didn't realize you were contributing to IDE back in the '90s. Cheers

That's impressive, I didn't realize you were contributing to IDE back in the '90s. Well, now you know! But all of my early IDE work (from 1992 onwards) pretty much predates modern hot-pluggable hardware and systems, and really needed a rewrite to accomodate them. Which is what Tejun, Alan, and Jeff have been busily doing of late, the new "libata" subsystem. I help out too, but keep a lowish profile for the most part. Cheers
