Hi All, Sorry for causing a ruckus.Actually, due to some stupidity, I seem to have changed a lot of names in the wiki whereas I wanted to change only one. Is there any way to revert this? I am really sorry for having caused this. My lack of experience with wikis. Sorry again, Atri -- Regards, Atri l'apprenant -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
