I'm working on a log-structured filesystem with support for multiple
physical volumes, called "XLFS". I had hoped to have a white-paper ready
around now, but publication deadlines are looming so it'll be off my front
burner for a few weeks. (I had just gotten a simple "mkxlfs" working when
I decided to re-think a few design decisions like how to set up the
.ifile<-->inode relationship...)
