Yes, and we would very much like to see it in the mainstream kernel,
rather than an mm branch. It is perfectly acceptable to turn off the
namespace

We have several reiser4/4KSTACKS successful reports.

Stupid question, why have small keys at all?

Too late, perhaps... SuSE Linux 9.2 will contain reiser4 (at least the
beta testversions did). It cannot be set up via YaST during installation,
which makes its user base pretty small. 9.3 is where we will probably
get a lot of users. Probably more bugs will get found
