We are aware of this issue and it is in discussions within the project team. It 
will not be possible to develop and maintain both current iscsi target and a 
iscsi transport in comstar. How to keep existing functionality, have minimum 
impact on customers, if we were to keep the existing target daemon then how to 
package it (install, optional install etc.) is something we will evaluate 
before comstar will be integrated into solaris.
