Ext3 users - Nov 2000 - ext3 for 2.4

Hi Stephen,

could you give us an idea, when we could expect the patch for the
2.4-series kernels? Do you have a 'roadmap' here or are you waiting here
for the 'complete' kernel-API for the journaling filesystems?

thanks,

Joachim

Roadmap is:

  Complete the metadata-only journaling
  Internal cleanups:
    remove journal data structures to a separate journal_head structure 
    rename the "jfs" layer to "jbd" (for "journaling
block device")
  Add support for journal on a separate disk (easy)
  Merge into 2.4.

Cheers,
 Stephen
