Well, I write to this list because I don't know where to
write about it, as it seems than the original e2fsprogs developers
have abandoned it, so the question is:
As others have pointed out, I most certainly have not abandonded it.
Unfortunately the glibc release coincided badly with some other changes
that I was making to e2fsprogs, so it took a while before I was ready to
release a new release.
As a matter of fact, there was a beta-test version of 1.12 which was
released a month or two ago; it can be found at tsx-11.mit.edu, in the
directory /pub/linux/ALPHA/ext2fs. In between travelling to the Linux
Expo in North Carolina and the Linux Kongress in Germany, I've been
fixing a last few final bugs, and hope to get a final release of 1.12
out in the near future.
Is anybody currently working on it?, I had horrible problems with
partitions bigger than 2Gbytes, and the problem seem to be with the
e2fsprogs and not with the kernel.
Actually, the problems are with glibc, not e2fsprogs, but I have a
workaround in the latest version of e2fsprogs.
