That last sentence is vague. What is the full feature set? Or,
otherwise, what pieces are missing?

Or is that the only piece missing from "afs"?

Thanks,

Michael

Hello Michael,

Given your remarks just on the first patch so that there must have about
20, I propose to send the complete list of description to add without
formatting for easy review. As we agree I do one final patch. Is that
okay with you?

Regards,

Hi Stéphane,

I'd really prefer not one big patch. And, though you don't know it, you
might too ;-). What I mean is, it's likely that a big patch will sit 
around *much* longer until I find time to review it. On the other hand, 
I do not mind if you make the patches bigger, covering 4 or 6
filesystems at a time.

Cheers,

Michael

I will also make multiple patches. But are you willing to drafting the
text, I want to do it in a separate file without the difficulties of
formatting?
