The only inflammatory bit was saying that I didn't like the SULF API. Which is about as inflammatory as saying Java collections suck (no language integration like System.Array integration System.Collections.IList), that System.Windows.Forms sucks, and that System.Diagnostics.EventLog sucks... > The SULF project you reference predates the FUSE low-level API and > even the latest couple kernel interface revisions.

Furthermore, the SULF project I referenced makes use of the FUSE low-level API, at least that's what the ChangeLog and associated web site says "The Fuse.dll library communicates with the FUSE kernel module," which would be the low-level FUSE API... > 1. ask about the state of SULF.

The SULF site I referenced (http://arg0.net/users/vgough/sulf/) is the top-most linked site at the time I was searching. The SULF site I referenced is *still* the site listed in the FUSE Wiki: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/LanguageBindings Short of emailing you, I have no idea how I was supposed to find anything more recent, especially since these older sites, which presumably you still control, could have been updated to at least say "this has been deprecated, please see the newer library _here_." BTW, this would *still* be a good idea. > 3. search this Mono list for FUSE related announcements Searching my multi-year mono-list history for all messages with "FUSE" in the subject brings up: "Re: [Mono-list] mod_mono MAKE confused on Apache version" - obvious match for "fuse" as a substring, not relevant "[Mono-list] ANN: Linux filesystems in C# (FUSE wrapper)" - Dated May 12, 2005, by Valient Gough <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - References http://pobox.com/~vgough/sulf - ...which redirects to http://arg0.net/users/vgough/sulf/ A *new* search (this morning) also brings up fusewrapper, http://arg0.net/wiki/fusewrapper, so I assume this is the newer library BTW, I see no messages with "fusewrapper" in the subject on either mono-list or mono-devel-list. - Jon _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
