Great. Thanks a lot!

Where would I be able to download the patch that you guys will be producing
once it's through QA? At ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiserfs-for-2.4/ or is
there some other place I can get it (e.g. BK/CVS/HTTP/FTP) before it's
posted at that link?

Thanks,

Alex

I looked again at the definition of the difference between ctime and
mtime on the stat man page, and I think that updating ctime in response
to rename is as reasonable as updating it in response to changing the
number of links.

Ok, we will conform, and I will accept the kindly donated patch, along
with Andrew's optimization of our evaluation of CURRENT_TIME. vs,
please add Andrew's suggested optimization and sent the result through
QA. Thanks to all for your good advice.
