Necessary prerequisite for reiser4 inclusion is a review by file system people. Christoph is doing this _work_. You know what it is to review somebody else code? It's a hard work. He is doing it for free. If he goes away---reiser4 wouldn't somehow magically be immediately included into kernel. It'll wait for review---for the next person to come and to do this work. And that person will most likely point to the very same things that hch does now only after a delay. Maybe with slightly more polished style (hair style included) though. :-) So, please be a little more patient. > > Reiser4 is far from perfect, but it is ready for more users.
