Okay, now we're talking high availability.
First off, I see it is "inspired" by CODA. That's cool. And CODA
is [virtually] a fork of AFS 2 (if I remember correctly). And I
just read about another "failover" filesystem in SysAdmin (or was it
UNIX Review? possibly even Linux Journal?) recently that began with
a "M".
If anyone wants to give me the "quick lowdown" on all these emerging
high availability / failover filesystems, platform availability,
their compatibility with or complete replacement of (i.e. if they
provide both HA/failover as well as sharing services) NFS and/or
Samba, etc... I'd greatly appreciated it.
Better yet, if you could post it to my local LUG (LEAP, cc'ed above,
probably want to remove the XFS list), I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanx in advance ...

Web site defacements are as much of a national security risk as
inner city kids spray painting. There is nothing of value, and
nothing that can't be fixed with a little re-paint. You'd have
to have the equivalent stupidity of someone parking an F-18 in
downtown LA. Even then, the only damage would be a new scheme!
The US government wants life imprisonment for such "terrorism."
