Do I need to do > a roll call ? ;-) FS-101 should be web pages containing a design document that explains the problems with the current model and the benefits the new proposed model will provide and how. More time should be spent spent covering the architecture before any patches are committed for such a central subsystem. I want to know where I'm going before I commit time to using and testing a new FS system that can possibly corrupt my disk partitions. This is highly possible no matter how god-like the FS designer/coder is. It's a complex piece of code. Regards, Mike Hancock
