It's extremely useful in an academic environment like ours, where different groups of researchers work in shared project spaces. I'd like to migrate our data partitions to ext4. If this option is going to disappear, I will have to seriously consider keeping current and new project spaces as ext3. Thanks for considering my viewpoint, --John -- John R.
