Why do I get the feeling that you haven't really been using xfs / on the 
xfs list for very long?

What he's referring to and what there is at least one more thread about 
is that SGI has historically made patched RedHat installers, like for 
example release 1.0.2 for RedHat 7.2. That's an example.

I've read of someone outside SGI is taking a look at it and also (I 
think) someone inside SGI is taking a look at patching the installer 
isos. The last mail on the subject was just 2 days ago I believe. So 
please try to look up facts before answering to a mail.

Go read more on the xfs homepage, http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/

The latest release is 1.1 but it doesn't contain an installer.
