Message-ID: <20070521144618.GA6914@redhat.com> Date: Mon, 21 May 2007 10:46:18 -0400 From: Dave Jones <davej@...hat.com> To: Linux Kernel <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Cc: rdunlap@...otime.net Subject: RFC: Schedule EFS for removal. EFS aparently is broken (See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1020) has been so for some time, and attempts to fix it have been rejected. Given there's a userspace app to access these volumes, how about scheduling it for removal ?
