I think it rather says that everyone has a story. Someone was complaining about anecdotes, but that's what we've got. Richard mentioned fixing the snapshots bug in fossil. This is about as close as we've come to examining the technical issues. It's mostly been story/counter-story about how we all have lost files on each of these filesystems. The important takeaway here is that we have reports of people losing data on every single one of them. I had problems with fossil. Like you, I never had problems with (cw)fs. Charles had problems with fs. I don't think we've refuted any claims about relative stability or even established a scale to measure with. -sl
