how about asking to SGI if they can contribute to the journaling FS,
since they want to give some parts of IRIX (which has a journal FS)
to the open source community ?
So you do not need do re-invent the wheel a second time ....
I think REDHAT should talk seriously about this issue with
the bg firms that has advanced technology, to speedup development
and to improve stability too.
any opinions ?
