fsck is the one non-solid piece of our code, and that has greatly
improved and will hopefully be solid by June 1. Two persons are working
on it full-time.
We have one bugfix in reiserfs that is not yet in the main kernel,
mainly because it is a deep bugfix that we are being careful with so
that it does not add more bugs. One user only so far has hit that bug.
We have some new code that we are saving for 2.5.1, to relocate, resize,
and generally tune the journal, and to mark blocks bad for users that
need to do that for long enough to get a new disk drive (if you see bad
blocks, usually your drive is no longer worth trusting your home
directory to.)
We will improve performance throughout 2.5, with a new block allocator
and a journal tuning and relocation patch, being the most important
changes likely to happen soon.
All in all, things look good for starting work on reiser4 on June 1.:)
