The ANSI Fibre Channel spec allows scsi/hippi over fibre channel..
Apart from that there is an IETF draft about IP over fibre channel.
Maybe some knowledgable linux weenie should get involved in the standards
process :)?

There a few FC cards that already do IP over FC. Some of them work
partially (only scsi) in linux. FC allow's for 1.05Gigabit/s. Iv'e
already seen some capable of doing double that and up.

.......and so on.
