That in itself does not make it less fun. The merge to CMake has made things a lot better. But you have to know what parts work and which don't. Packaging is next on my list once I've ironed out most of the bugs in signaling and process termination. ceph-disk is so loaded with all low level linuxisms that I'm contemplating ripping out the innards and build a ceph-disk-freebsd for the time being. As not te get distracted by all this Linux mojo. Especially since the only store supported atm. is filestore. --WjW
