There is no problem with dropping drivers/char/dz.[ch] from the official tree. Us Linux/VAX guys work off our own CVS tree on SourceForge, so we can continue to carry the drivers/char/dz.[ch] until we've got the new driver working. So, Jan-Benedict, there is no major panic to get the new driver working for us before Rusty/Linus remove the old one.
