AXFS, Advanced Execute In Place Filesystem

,----[ Quote ]
| "I'd like to get a first round of review on my AXFS filesystem," began Jared 
| Hulbert, describing his new Advanced XIP File System for Linux. XIP stands 
| for eXecute-In-Place. The new filesystem received quite a bit of positive 
| feedback.

Tux3 Versioning Filesystem

,----[ Quote ]
| In his announcement email, Daniel noted that implementation work is
| underway, "much of the work consists of cutting and pasting bits of code I
| have developed over the years, for example, bits of HTree and ddsnap. The
| immediate goal is to produce a working prototype that cuts a lot of corners,
| for example block pointers instead of extents, allocation bitmap instead of
| free extent tree, linear search instead of indexed, and no atomic commit at
| all. Just enough to prove out the versioning algorithms and develop new user
| interfaces for version control."

OLS: Kernel documentation, and submitting kernel patches

,----[ Quote ]
| Another interesting but somewhat difficult to understand talk on this day was
| by Andi Kleen, who gave a brief course entitled "On submitting kernel
| features."
|
| Kleen, a self-described "recovering maintainer," asked, "Why submit patches?"

Linux kernel developers have tripled in number

,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux Foundation (LF) has published a study on Linux mainline kernel
| development. According to LF, the number of Linux kernel developers has
| tripled since 2005, with many more companies contributing to the process
| (including, potentially, the latest new LF member, Adobe).
