Then, for the sake of not making other potential Reiser4 contributors
lose their time -- falsely believing in the technical meritocracy of
FOSS -- I suggest that you place the above statement at the GNU Parted
site.

Last I read (< http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/ >) *before
submitting my Reiser4 patch* I could not find a notice *explicitly*
stating that Reiser4 work is not to be evaluated on its technical
merits but rather on a personal  'morality', religious fanaticism,
and/or subjective 'altruism' and/or prejudice. I even checked for the
relevant 'Reiser' string at the development site (<
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/parted/ >) with NULL results.

Notwithstanding, selectively applying a personal subjective criteria
to Reiser4 and not, say JFS for instance, seems more of a
contradictory attitude --as code contributions from organizations with
exponentially darker backgrounds (<
http://listverse.com/2013/10/24/10-big-business-nazi-profiteers/ >)
than Reiser are included -- specifically in Parted -- without
compunction.


Best Professional Regards.

What can I say...

Of course, we can complain to RMS, but they will find a reason to not
include it...
I have uploaded your patch here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/reiser4/files/patches
This is for distributions who maintain their own forks of GNU parted.

Thanks!
Edward.

LOL, no.

I just followed Debian maintainer's original advice on updating patch against git branch of GNU Parted.
< https://marc.info/?l=reiserfs-devel&m=155865303620491&w=2 >

> Someone must have died ...

Well, that's the reasoning behind GNU Parted gatekeeper
< https://www.brianlane.com/about-brian-c-lane/ >

for not merging reiser4 patch.

I just wonder if now that 'Big Blue' acquired Red Hat, the GNU Parted gatekeeper will act in a consistent
manner and quit his employer on 'ethical and moral' grounds in light of Watson's complicity tainting the company.

Or someone was perhaps convicted of second degree murder after a plea deal
for revealing the location of his wife's corpse. ReiserFS wasn't production
quality when it was mainstream, ie. its own filessystem check tools were
incapable of repairing a filesystem that was improperly closed under the
majority of scenarios. I'd strongly suggest whatever your need is for this
filesystem, re-evaluate your position.

umh...  why cherry pick? Below is reprint of complementary argument you are omitting:

I just wonder if now that 'Big Blue' acquired Red Hat, the GNU Parted gatekeeper will act in a consistent
manner and quit his employer on 'ethical and moral' grounds in light of Watson's complicity tainting the company.

(and/or "Democracy For The Few" by Michael Parenti).

i.e., "...I have absolutely
no desire to see [IBM]'s work or name do anything but disappear into
obscurity."
< http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-parted/2015-12/msg00008.html >

The topic is Reiser4 different technology and thus different beast than ReiserFS. Apropos, hang issues and corruption are prevalent in BtrFS and ext4,
i.e., for a couple of instances,

< https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=EXT4-Linux-4.19-Corruption >

 > I'd strongly suggest whatever your need is for this filesystem, re-evaluate your position.
thus your advice should be directed at the 'ethically and morally righteous' maintainers of those filesystems.
With all its quirks and issues, Reiser4 is a different beast which has not corrupted any of my data during my several years of daily use in Google Cloud images
as well as in remote bare metal servers and/or my local development environment(s) where I develop my kernels and installers.

Accordingly, and with all due respect, I don't request sanctimonious crap from mudslingers.


Best Professional Regards.

Ouch, I've clearly hit a nerve. My mileage with Reiser wasn't all rosy and
sweet, lost critical data that was written after a power loss and before
the next backup cycle. My aversion to the filesystem is purely technical.
All other filesystems on that day recovered with their respective fsck;s.
WIshing you continued good luck with your exploits.

 BR,

Harry

Ah, no problems anyway..
I'll put the patch to Sourceforge.

Thanks,
