Mention new features:
. if_media support (obtained from Jason Thorpe's NetBSD implementation),
. multi-session ISO-9660 support
Move aic6[26]30 and floppy tapes out into an ``unmaintained'' subsection,
so people don't expect the same quality of support for them as for other
drivers.
Our ATAPI CD-ROM driver should no longer be considered ALPHA quality
now, i think.
