Hello everyone,

Now that v0.16 is out the door, I'd like to get a thread going on topics
people are interested in tackling next. The top of my list looks like
this:

Improved allocator threading

Better in-memory free space indexing (Josef)

Better fsync performance (Chris)

Improved offline fsck

NFS Support

O_DIRECT support

But anything on the development timeline is fair game. I'm shooting for
a smaller number of changes this time around so a new release can be cut
before the kernel summit and plumber's conference in mid-September.
