I've finally put it into style(9) (ugh!), and would like to get it into the FreeBSD source tree. 1. How does one commit the code? 2. What version of FreeBSD should a new file system support (it currently runs under 3.x and 4.x). 3. OpenVMS and ODs-2 keep record attributes and embedded meta-data in the regular file data. I've been writing some utility programs that understand the meta-data, like "ods2_cat" and "ods2_cp". Also, some work has progressed on an RMS library. Should and how are such things committed?
