Well, I think it's time I introduced myself.

I am the developer/maintainer of the USB Mass Storage driver.  What does
that have to do with SCSI, you ask?  Well, this driver acts like a SCSI
host, taking commands from the SCSI core and then performing the necessary
operations to transform the commands and then transport the data to and
from USB devices.  I implemented this driver as a SCSI host because the
commands used by USB devices line up 99% with the format of SCSI commands.

During my development efforts, I've seen some (what I would call) strange
behavior from the SCSI core layers.  Seeing that, I decided that it would
be a good time to join this list so I had a place and people with whom to
discuss these issues.  I've been lurking here for a little while now just
to get the feel of the list.
