@@ -63,3 +63,23 @@ Why: Outside of Linux, the only implementations of anything even
        people, who might be using implementations that I am not aware
        of, to adjust to this upcoming change.

+What:  IEEE1394 Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol driver,
+       Connection Management Procedures driver
+When:  November 2005
+Files: drivers/ieee1394/{amdtp,cmp}*
+Why:   These are incomplete, have never worked, and are better implemented
+       in userland via raw1394 (see http://freebob.sourceforge.net/ for
+       example.)
+Who:   Jody McIntyre <scjody@steamballoon.com>

+---------------------------
+
+What:  raw1394: requests of type RAW1394_REQ_ISO_SEND, RAW1394_REQ_ISO_LISTEN
+When:  November 2005
+Why:   Deprecated in favour of the new ioctl-based rawiso interface, which is
+       more efficient.  You should really be using libraw1394 for raw1394
+       access anyway.
