One major frustration with the existing datastore implementation is that is unfriendly to legacy applications: you can't easily use the command-line to browse through it, and you can't save a file from an unmodified linux application into the journal. I propose a filesystem design, called olpcfs for now, to address this deficiency, and provide versioning and synchronization mechanisms needed for the next-generation journal. It plays nicely with the upgrade mechanisms and Bitfrost, too!
