Where are the benchmarks and stability analysis? How many hours does it
survive cerberos running on all nodes simultaneously? Where are the
testimonials from users? How long has there been a gfs2 filesystem? Note
that Reiser4 is still not in mainline a year after it was first offered, why
do you think gfs2 should be in mainline after one month?

So far, all catches are surface things like bogus spinlocks. Substantive
issues have not even begun to be addressed. Patience please, this is going
to take a while.

Daniel
