[olug] Hans Reiser

[Aaron Grothe]

Reisferfs version 3 has pretty much been dormant for the last year
plus.  Hans pretty much refuses to accept patches into v3 because he
wants to push v4.  The only distro I know of that actually really
uses v4 by default is Arch.  Suse is going to go with ext3 for 10.2
because of the lack of v3 updates.

If you want to flip filesystems you might want to take a look at jfs
from IBM.  It has been pretty stable for me in my use.  If you have
an UPS and never crash XFS can be pretty nice, but some people have
had problems with it corrupting their data.

Regards,

Aaron
