| changes, has been rising in the past few weeks. In February alone, the 
| maintainers of the stable kernel series have released four new 2.6.28.x 
| versions and five new 2.6.27.x kernels, to correct numerous flaws in the 
| respective predecessors and add many minor improvements.

Should Filesystems Be Optimized for SSD’s? 

,----[ Quote ]
| As long as SSD manufacturers force us treat these devices as black boxes, 
| there may be a certain amount of cargo cult science which may be forced upon 
| us file system designers — or I guess I should say, in order to be more 
| academically respectable, “we will be forced to rely more on empirical 
| measurements leading to educated engineering estimations about what the SSD 
| is doing inside the black box”. Heh.
