It is a shame that the community as a whole is abandoning the code.
From the comparison chart linked in another post on this topic, Reiser
Filesystems seem to be filled with some features that other filesystems
lack and that are useful.
Seriously, if the guy had died of cancer or in a car wreck, would the
community be so keen on just letting the FS die of bitrot ?
