Now that I'm back, it's time to stir the devinfo pot, once again ;-> I wonder if this is just one more _very_good_reason_ to upgrade SME5.1beta1 to a more current kernel and more advanced file system? IMHO, considering the axonlinux team managed to implement 2.4/XFS (and is currently back working on doing the same for SME5.1beta1) I'm certain the talent at Mitel would be able to do the same. I know the devinfo members will be there to assist with testing. IMHO, we need SME5.1 to be more then it is currently looking to be. Otherwise there will be no 'compelling' need (bear with me and read the next paragraph) for anyone to implement 5.1 (or from Mitel/partner's perspective to purchase 5.1). Even for myself, my production server remains 4.1.2, with samba/php/mysql upgraded to meet or surpass the current 5.1beta1 levels already and I know I am not alone in this regard. Gordon mentioned we might see php and mysql upgraded in 5.1 but again none of these compell you to move to 5.1. They are simply version upgrades that can be tagged onto 4.1.2 and 4.1.2/2.2.16 has a larger driver base available then 5.1/2.2.19. Having a more current kernel and a more advanced filesystem would be a great 'compelling' reason to upgrade.
