The guys will hopefully put a very beta patch (for developers only) on our download page sometime today (I am getting on an airplane to the USA, and leaving this to them), and a release appropriate for acceptance as an experimental filesystem will ship Halloween day. We want to make one last disk format change before it goes into the kernel.;-) Yes, I know, plugins make disk format changes easy, but I still don't want there to be plugins that were only used for one week if I can avoid it, and our holding a final comprehensive disk format review on Friday found something better changed. Read performance got worse, and write performance got better. We'll have updated benchmarks on our website by the end of the day. Hans
