It's interesting that it was left behind in the last big rearrangement, which did successfully move most of the misc. file systems to the fs tree. One good reason not to move things around in the kernel tree is that it's not just kernel code that is affected -- userland code is also affected, and if there are third party apps that use kernel include files, they need to be updated. I'm not sure if that's true for the cd9660 file system, but it would be easy to imagine that being the case. Robert N M Watson Computer Laboratory University of Cambridge
