Hello All,
I am a CS graduate student from Carnegie Mellon University. I am
hoping to build the feature - "Content based storage mode" under
Google Summer of Code 2015. This project has also been listed as an
idea on BTRFS ideas page. However, I have not found a mentor yet, and
without a mentor I can not participate in the program. Please let me
know if anybody is interested in mentoring this project. Here is a
link to my proposal:
http://harshadjs.github.io/2015/03/27/Fedora-BTRFS-Content-Storage-Mode/
Thanks,
Harshad.

This probably has a significant overlap with the in-band dedup work from
Liu bo [1]. Your proposal expects an interface to look up the data by
hash which hasn't been implemented afaik.

Thanks David and that's true: there will be a large overlap with dedup
work from Liu Bo. In fact, a few days after I sent the first mail, I
got in touch with Liu and he agreed upon mentoring. So, I am all set
now and will start working on the project in May end..
Best,
Harshad.
