Depends.  If you're still using drivers/ide then yes, it is.  With
libata (which is what most modern distros use), osst just works as an
ATAPI transport.

git log tells me ide-scsi has been updated quite a bit recently, but it
mostly looks to be fallout around the drivers/ide churn.  Can we get ide
maintainer's buy in for this (I think they've been maintaining ide-tape
and ide-cd in preference to ide-scsi)?
