Firewire refuses to die, but needs help — as hardware becomes rarer, maintainer seeks volunteers for device testing

The Linux OS Firewire Maintainer is looking for help from testers still using the ancient hardware. Takashi Sakamoto has made it his quest to keep Firewire (IEEE 1394) support going on Linux systems until 2029. However, with such hardware use increasingly rare, he is looking for more input from the user base.
