Yikes. Once more, Hans Reiser demonstrates he has all
the
social skills of an eggplant. In a message to Alan Cox
titled "Re: New Linux 2.5 - 2.6 TODO (Alan Cox suggests delaying
reiserfs integration)" he writes:
This is just a RedHat bureaucratic excuse to
delay reiserfs. [...] The fact is, Chris Mason kicked your
asses performance wise and now you want to employ some
journaling standardization process to stall your competitors
that you
can't program as well as.
Why don't you help us with ReiserFS instead of standing
in the way of people trying to program?
Aya. Naturally, Alan Cox told him to stop treating the linux-kernel list like
slashdot. But the best response I've read so far
is Chris Mason's:
[...] In other words, quit saying that I did a better job
than
ext3. We had different goals, and it will be a long time I
before understand things as well as Stephen does.
Why don't you help us with ReiserFS instead of
standing in the way of people trying
to program?
You're right hans, at least once a week, alan comes over
to my house and breaks one of my fingers. I've just been
afraid all this time to talk about it.
This is not the first time that Chris has served as the
Voice of Reason on the ReiserFS list. I hope we neven find
out what
would happen to the project without him.
As for my own doings... Well, I know I should have had
that new release of adaptive
contrast enhancement out by now, but the weather really
has been terribly nice. In fact, it didn't even rain on the
annual Rose Festival parade here, which is a serious breach
in tradition. But there were a few rainy days, so when it
does come out, it will be debianizable. Now anyone want to
contribute an rpm spec file to gimp-plugin-template?
