Last I checked there were some patches which I thought either Eric or
you were working on to change xfsprogs so it would be willing to try
to manipulate project quotas on non-xfs file systems?

I had some *extremely* hacky patches which were just enough to test
project quotas, but then I gave up on them after quotatools learned
how to work with project quotas.  I believe the presumption though was
that it would be easier to teach xfsprogs to work with ext4 than to
change xfstests to use quotatools?

Does anyone know what the status of the "real" patches to xfsprogs
that were (hopefuly) going to be clean enough to try to push them
upstream?
