A question of grace, again, if you please.

Does the current plugin architecture allow views to be implemented
directly or will it affect the on-disk layout in a manner which
requires mkfs?

I'm fairly certain that it should not require mkfs, but as something
of the local Reiser4 advocate I just want to make sure :)

BTW, the READ.ME for 2004.04.26:
d. readdir() over NFS has known problems.

I think I may be something of a successful advocate; a friend is considering
Reiser4 for his RAIDed NFS file server, because it needs an overhaul.

Although it's not a production system, I think his input on possible
failures would be welcome and of course some stability (no need to mkfs
a big-assed system) on the filesystem's part would be good to guarantee.

So, basically, have you decided on when the next snapshot is due
with NFS issues fixed? ;)

Thanks!
