Hi, I'd like to start working on the openbsd kernel. I thought about
adding JFS (http://jfs.sourceforge.net/) to it.

Do you know if there's anyone already working on this? I cannot access
the bug tracking system (seems to be down)

It seems that the JFS maintenance is being carried out in kernel.org
and contains the following legend:

it is ok to port this kind of source code or a reimplementation is preferred?

Thanks.

Regards.
Daniel.
