I said that I may look at this, and this mail is still in my todo box. But unfortunately, I've realized that I am unable to do many things I wanted to. In the past, MTD/UBIFS was very related to my regular work, but now my work has no relation with MTD/UBIFS, so I do not have much own time for it. Thus, I am dropping many of my TODO items. Just wanted to let you know. -- Best Regards, Artem Bityutskiy
