Note that all of the features mentioned in the list at least have some kind of prototype already or people working on it. It isn't really a "feature request list". I'm not sure how many people are interested in compression/encryption, but if they are they should come forward with a patch. Note that there was previously a compression patch for ext2, maybe that could be moved forward for ext4? Cheers, Andreas -- Andreas Dilger Principal Software Engineer Cluster File Systems, Inc.
