It's bitrotten, long unmaintained, long hidden under BROKEN_ON_SMP,
etc.  As scheduled in feature-removal-schedule.txt, and ack'd several
times on lkml.

-Intro
-=====
-
-This file describes some issues involved when using the "ftape"
-floppy tape device driver that comes with the Linux kernel.
-
-ftape has a home page at
-
-http://ftape.dot-heine.de/
-
-which contains further information about ftape. Please cross check
-this WWW address against the address given (if any) in the MAINTAINERS
-file located in the top level directory of the Linux kernel source
-tree.
-
-NOTE: This is an unmaintained set of drivers, and it is not guaranteed to work.
-If you are interested in taking over maintenance, contact Claus-Justus Heine
-<ch@dot-heine.de>, the former maintainer.
