I am not certain this plan to make money from a repacker is going to be
a workable idea.

Reiser4 starts off being very nice and fast, but I have been using it
for a /home partition for almost a year now, and the performance has
dropped significantly.

Once this happens to enough people using Reiser4, one of them is going
to write a free repacker.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to release at least an offline repacker.
