Treefs: A Breath of Life

After an 9 month hiatus I've finally started working on TreeFS again!! This is the first I've really had an urge to work on it since I graduated and I'm very excited. Over the last week I've dusted off the code and made it compile for the latest greatest kernel version 2.6.20-rc3 :). I've also started re-familiarizing myself with the code and fixing up some small issues with comments and output. I've rebuilt my development VM that allows me to test my file system without crashing my operating system. So, looks like the only place to go from here is actual development. I do hope my urge to work on this sticks around for a while :-D.

Martin has restarted his work on the GUI TreeFS browser tool and has come up with a really cool looking prototype. I'm excited to see it in action once development has started. I think this tool will be really cool and useful and I'm very happy he's decided to continue work on it.

In case anyone is intersted all of our work can be found here: TreeFS Project Site
