Cool.  I read the Reiser document with interest.  They incorrectly
spelled "Ganger", and omitted "Patt".

The algorithm they use is familiar... hmmm...

It is in violation of US Patent 5,666,532, on Delayed Ordered
Writes, something I've mentioned many times in the past as
being significantly inferior to Soft Updates.

Should you tell them, or should I tell Novell?
