I'm one who think reiser3 is great, and can't wait to see reiser4 in
the mainstream, so please don't just assume reiserfs is obsolete. It's
very much usable and very stable. So, if you don't use it, please
don't comment negatively on. And I am who is very appreciative of
Hans's contribution to Linux giving it a great journaling filesystem
to start with. Reiser4 may have tangent off track and annoyed many
smart developers, but please give it a chance to make Linux even
better.

Thanks,
Jeff.
