Hi Glenn;


We also found out that, like the ReiserFS maintainer, the starter of 
this thread, who is also the starter and maintainer of the ReiserFS wiki 
as well as the filler of the ReiserFS wiki with copyrighted materials, 
has changed to the development of the Btrfs file system, too. For 
example in June he made a patch with:

-	tristate "Btrfs filesystem (EXPERIMENTAL) Unstable disk format"
-	depends on EXPERIMENTAL
+	tristate "Btrfs filesystem"

so that "Btrfs is highly experimental" could be substituted with "Btrfs 
is under heavy development".

Again, this gives something to think about the engagement of the person, 
as well. We always had the impression that he, like a handful of other 
persons, was only here at reiserfs to mess up the R4 development, to 
work and make politics against this project, and to disturb the 
developers and their businesses.
Btw.: In the case of copying copyrighted materials into the ReiserFS 
wiki the kernel.org administrator was already informed by us, but 
explained that it's up to [Hans Reiser] to ask for removing these 
materials from kernel.org, which is an argumentation we are unable to 
understand, because the kernel.org administrator does know that 
copyrighted materials are illegally publicated on the kernel.org website.

Cheerio

inode_lock should be going away within 6 months or so, with the
vfs-scaling developments (see linux-fsdevel).


It is now possible to trap all dirtying activity from all sources
except get_user_pages (but filesystems tend to ignore that little
problem).

Yup, I keep a track of your efforts,

Thanks for looking at this.

Hello Ralph;

That is a problematic part of IT-business, and insights, feelings and 
experiences for and in such situations can be best developed, if someone 


Sorry Ralph, but: No, that's not right.
What we did is exactly what you have mentioned: We gave it ontologics, 
which includes semantics and ontology based semantics. Or let say it 
with other words: Our [....]FS is based on R4 and could be described 
very rough as H. Reisers vision of the further development of R4 in a 
Semantic[/Ontologic] Web style, which could be seen as the R5 you 
mentioned, but has now another name that fits better with semantics and 
ontologics.
And we have explained such a semantic feature in a discussion on this 
mailing list. But just right from the start we got the advice by the 
actual maintainer:
"Go away!"
Later, we were also heavily attacked by other members of this mailing 
list with statements like "stealing", "that's rude" and so on.
Since then we are not allowed to talk about our R4 based fork.

Please read also this whole thread again, especially the messages of the 

We hade started around the 1995s while no one was really interesting in 
these kind of semantic, ontologic and ontology based technologies.

Sorry again, but: No, that's not right. The EU-funded research project 
Nepomuk is largely based on stolen technologies from my company (eg. 
ontology for file system). After the presentation of our Linux based 
distribution with an R4 forked file system, that we are not allowed to 
mention here, and the ending of the monetary support of the related 
research project with tax money we gave only in small steps new 
informations about our technology so that it couldn't be stolen further 
by that project, members of the project, a newer project, a company, or 
others. That's the real reason and has nothing to do with the technology 
itself, but in fact more with international governmental and industrial 
issues. Or said with oher words: We have the thumb on it.
Please, ...
