This leads me to ask a question:  How closely related are the OS/2 and
Linux code?  I understood that the intention was to port back the Linux
changes to OS/2.  Is that still the case?

I just migrated back from JFS to HPFS on my OS/2 WSfeB server.  After
struggling for over a year and a half with various JFS versions and
experiencing server-crashing corruptions over and over again, I have
given up.  I'm still interested in the availability of JFS for Linux
(and hopeful for a stable version under OS/2), I've decided that JFS is
still a long way away from stability on either platform.

Anyway, I'm hoping that the activity here will at least have *some*
chance of being seen in a future OS/2 JFS update...
