Subject: ReiserFS IFSD for Windows
Date: Thu, 12 May 2005 12:59:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <42838B75.1000605@cs.cmu.edu> (raw)

This summer, I will be starting a 3.5-month project to create an 
Installable File System Driver (IFSD) to read ReiserFS under Microsoft 
Windows, similar to ext2fsd.   (The project is a practicum to complete 
my degree in software engineering from  Carnegie Mellon.)

I have three questions:

* Is anyone out there interested in using the tool as it is developed?

* Is anyone out there interested in mentoring the development of the 
tool?  (This basically consists of answering specific technical 
questions when they arise.)

* Other than compliance to the GPL, are there any other liscensing 
factors I should be aware of?

For anyone interested, my initial plan is to port the read-only ReiserFS 
3 code from the GRUB bootloader, and turn it into an IFSD using the same 
techniques as in ext2fsd -- although I'd love to hear other ideas, and 
opinions of whether the project might be feasible with ReiserFS 4.

  Thanks,
     Mark Piper
