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.
