I haven't looked at it. Please send me the two patches (core kernel diff
and the fs) along with complete usage instructions so that people know
where to find the userspace tools, how to run them etc. Also please ensure
that all mount options are documented and that any known bugs are
described.

Be aware that the barriers for a new filesystem are relatively high: each
one adds a significant maintenance burden to the VFS and MM developers. It
will need cautious review.

But that doesn't mean we cannot get it out there, get you some more testing
and exposure.
