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. --=20 Jonathan Briggs eSoft, Inc. --=-WO/Gnqzmvfpz6+irtBVl Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBCeqzdG8fHaOLTWwgRArlOAJ0Yn5o8aM00NAYVeerJ7ZUthOcuhQCgoGlU 4FyttW/7Kme1pRHPhalf9ME= =ssZ6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-WO/Gnqzmvfpz6+irtBVl--
