No, I had not applied yet because it says on the apply page that one
is supposed to ask here before.

No, my extension is based on Masaki Fujimotos extension, which has
nothing to do with Bob Carrolls extension... has this actually
happened before that an old extension was replaced with totally
different code?

I doubt anyone is actually able to use the current extension as a base
for a filesystem as it can do read only -  but I have not found anyone
actually using any of the fuse extensions in an open-source project,
either. Actually, in a Debian channel the idea of writing a FUSE
filesystem in PHP was met with disbelief and laughter.

But yes, the extensions are quite incompatible - though a fix takes
ten minutes, at most. Basically, one just has to rename the functions
and make the st-parameter of the getattr() function accept a
reference, as well as dealing with $st as an array instead of an
object.
