a filesystem integrity auditing system?
How would that external tool work to (a) detect the bad block during its
access to prevent bad data from being returned to the user and (b)
enable the swapping of bad data with a good spare copy if available?
Nope... it's got to be in the kernel.

, and the whole distro is tainted
and should be marked as such UP FRONT, or it's not, and the paragraph
should be removed, if possible.
Or a third alternative... use the ACPI implementation from OpenBSD,
which doesn't have such a restriction.

you include something into the
distro.
Otherwise, smart people will react to license notices because yes
indeed, THESE MATTER.

And that's why I challenged you as to why. We needed Java to run in
the browser back before we had cross-platform DHTML widgets. But with
HTML5 around the corner, I've got to again ask, why Java?

We needed Java before we had good JavaScript. Now we have good
