Really. I must be mis-remembering some of the comments made about reiserfs 3 during the 2.5 to 2.6 period. > I am entitled to get some advantage from being the first on the block You were not first on the block. Linus was, thats why it's Linux (well not directly his fault about the name) and why he sets policy. I've never heard Linus espousing such an idea so I wonder why you think that way. Rather I've heard Linus tell groups of people with differing ideas about interfaces to go figure it out first and build the right interface then come back with a consensus (for example with SELinux) > It is odd how Hellwig no longer describes himself as XFS associated Why would that be "odd". What are you trying to imply and why not just say it if you actually have something to say. Alan
