Interestingly I was talking to an IBM guy this weekend at
the Manchester Linux Developer's Conference (BTW Steve,
David McAllister was there talking about his new outfit, had
an interesting chat).
The IBM guy was not aware of the OS/2 origin of Linux JFS,
but I had heard of it from other sources (I had also heard
that someone has back-ported the Linux version to OS/2 and
come up with a better product than the original OS/2 one !!).
