Issues specific to sshfs.app (the GUI wrapper) should *NOT* be reported under the "Issues" tab of the MacFUSE project page. If people continue to report issues with sshfs.app (even after the download being marked as "unsupported" and me having said that umpteen times in my responses), I guess it'd be more appropriate to simply remove the download link. People need to understand that sshfs.app is how it is (minimal, skeletal) because it was written only for a single demo. If we ever do a GUI for MacFUSE, sshfs.app is not representative of that GUI!It's fine by me if people discuss sshfs.app related matters in the mailing list, because unlike a formal "issue report", it doesn't create extra and unnecessary work for me. Issues with sshfs/sshfs-static *could* be MacFUSE issues though, but it's often obvious that they're not. If you think you've found a bug in MacFUSE through your use of sshfs, then, by all means please do report it by opening a ticket.
In all fairness, you guys did publish a nice, simple, and extremely useful app that uses MacFUSE, then abruptly abandoned it. You even abandoned external offers to help improve it.
And I understand that it isn't in Google's interest to support this little utility, and that's fine -- your priorities are your own, and I'm not going to try to dictate what you should be doing -- but this app does seem like something people will clamor for support for.
Thanks.
