Hello Linus,

I have written (a read only at the moment) BFS filesystem for Linux and
placed tha patch on:

http://www.ocston.org/~tigran/patches/bfs-2.3.21.patch

I cc'd Andries

I haven't seen anything. No surprise, seeing the phantasy address you invented.
Tigran, you are a strange and sneaky person.

because I know that he has written (independently) a similar thing.
I hope you will consider including it in the 2.3.x series.

A third independent implementation of bfs was done by Martin Hinner
<mhi@linux.gyarab.cz>.

Regards,
Tigran.

PS. For those who don't know what BFS is - it is the filesystem type used
for mounting /stand slice on SCO UnixWare systems.

So we have three versions right now:

Martin Hinner's at http://www.penguin.cz/~mhi/fs/bfs/ .
Mine at ftp://ftp.cwi.nl/pub/aeb/bfs/ .
Tigran's - see above.

I'll compare one of these days and report.
