Christain, the hostility I'm reading is in your steady passive aggressive accusations, and your patronizing attitude. It's not professional, and it's not called for. Can we please try to stay focused on the code, and the process, and the _actual_ concerns? In that offlist thread, I don't recall much in the way of actual, concrete concerns. I do recall Christoph doing his usual schpiel; and to be clear, I cut short my interactions with Christoph because in nearly 15 years of kernel development he's never been anything but hostile to anything I've posted, and the criticisms he posts tend to be vague and unaware of the surrounding discussion, not anything actionable. The most concrete concern from you in that offlist thread was "we don't want a repeat of ntfs", and when I asked you to elaborate you never responded. Huh. And: this pull request is not some sudden thing, I have been steadily feeding prep work patches in and having ongoing discussions with other filesystem people, including presenting at LSF to gather feedback, since _well_ before you were the VFS maintainer. If you have anything concrete to share, any concrete concerns you'd like addressed - please share them! I'd love to work with you. I don't want the two of us to have a hostile, adversarial relationship; I appreciate the work you've been doing in the vfs, and I've told you that in the past. But it would help things if you would try to work with me, not against me, and try to understand that there's been past discussions and consensus that was built before you came along. Cheers, Kent
