An Update On The Tux3 File-System

Posted by Michael Larabel on September 16, 2008

Linux file-systems has been a hot topic as of late with the development of the Btrfs and Tux3 file-systems in particular. Tux3 is an open-source versioning file-system being developed by Daniel Phillips since earlier this year that builds upon the never-released Tux2. Tux3 is still very much under development, but on the Linux Kernel Mailing List a project update has been provided by Daniel. Some of the recent work is shared along with some of their immediate plans for the future. This announcement can be read at LKML.org.
