it wanted to continue with the work Ognyan Kulev on the EXT3 file system
When this Savannah task was entered, I wanted to comment in it but for
some reason Savannah denied me such abilities although I was logged in.
There is practically no need for big development in ext3fs. It's about
fixing bugs, and the hard ones are in GNU Mach. This is why I haven't
worked on ext2fs and ext3fs since a long time but rather insist on
porting to Xen which will help in fixing GNU Mach.
The places marked with XXX in the source are those that need touching.
There are some design changes that must be done for "production quality"
release, as written in README:
Major defects:
* Fixed update credits (20 blocks)
Minor defects:
* Only data=writeback is supported.
This is inherited from Hurd's ext2fs. File content is managed
separately from main store.
* Don't do "make install" -- I haven't even tried to do it. Just use
"ext3fs/ext3fs" after build.
