Hello,

I'm working on a book that will be covering FreeBSD 5.0, scheduled for
publication in the first part of next year.

cvsweb shows that people have been through unionfs lately.  Is unionfs
still considered dangerous?  I'd like to discuss it in the book, as
it's massively cool and very useful in jails, but I don't want to
recommend things that will suck in a production environment.

Since you're the poor folks who have to support whatever I tell people
to do, I'm asking you.  Should I discuss it, or shouldn't I?

Regards,
==ml

PS: I also presume nullfs is still an atrocity to be avoided under
pain of, well, pain?
