Indeed ... I transferred as much knowledge as I could to a group of SGI
engineers who were then working on the project for a while. Unfortunately
then the whole group was laid off (for unrelated reasons). I could not find a
sponsor for continuing from there since.
The open issues in the project include some research (e.g., figuring out how
Windows applications behave in practice when using Linux NFSv4 ACLs -- this
is necessary to make a few implementation decisions which the overall design
has left open), and some more implementation / testing / documentation work.
Thanks,
Andreas
