Hi, I see that the linuxppc_2_5 bk tree has disappeared from fsmlabs, and

future holds wrt 2.4/2.5 linuxppc (embedded)?

I was hoping Cort would mention this here, but 2_5 has been 'dead' for a
while and is finally gone too.  There's still mirrors of it however.
It will exist again, but when 2.5.0 appears and will be based off the
linux_2_4 tree or so.  Right now 2_4_devel isn't up to date wrt 8xx/4xx, and
some new boards 2_5 had.  I'm working on it. :)

I guess I should actually ask about what I want :-) The linuxppc_2_5 tree
had a "drivers/i2c/i2c-algo-8xx.c" file which has disappeared from 2_4_devel.
I need an i2c driver for linuxppc for the 8260 and figured this would be a
good place to start. So the question really is what has happened to the 8xx
i2c driver in the fsmlabs linuxppc_2_5, and has anyone ported this to (or done
one independently for) the 8260?

These are in 2_4_devel as of last night.  I'm also trying to get ahold of the
i2c maintainers so that it can be in linus' tree eventually.
