Sorry, I've been travelling a lot lately and I'm a bit behind on processing patch submissions. I'm going to try to catch up over the next week or so in preparation for the next merge window. I'll send you an update on this (and hopefully your Next3 e2fsprogs patch submissions, although that doesn't have the same urgency due to Linus's upcoming merge window for kernel patches) soon. - Ted
