Message-Id: From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Sat, 03 Sep 2005 00:02:18 +0200 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 997 Lines: 31 Hi Andrew! Do you plan to send FUSE to Linus for 2.6.14? I know you have some doubts about usefulness, etc. Here are a couple of facts, that I hope show that Linux should benefit from having FUSE: - total number of downloads from SF: ~25000 - number of downloads of last release (during 3 months): ~7000 - number of distros carrying official packages: 2 (debian, gentoo) - number of publicly available filesystems known: 27 - of which at least 2 are carried by debian (and maybe others) - number of language bindings: 7 (native: C, java, python, perl, C#, sh, TCL) - biggest known commercial user: ~110TB exported, total bandwidth: 1.5TB/s - mailing list traffic 100-200 messages/month - have been in -mm since 2005 january Miklos - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
