I've told many of you plenty new. The article even mentions ZFS which is incompatible with the license of Linux and will always stay out of tree - does that make it not worth writing articles about because of it? Where is your proof that there is lack of ability to maintain it? Thats not the case and the developers have become more in numbers with the once-leading developer still actually sticking to the design and principles that were the foundation of its design. And if you fail to acknowledge that reiser4 is just as easy or easier to implement than say ZFSoL, then you are missing out on things that in the future could have saved your data WHEN that happens for those of you with btrfs. And if its the actual name some of you want to change because it's so offensive - well then I feel sorry for how overly sensitive you are and lack of ability to see that Hans Reiser is serving his time, its predecessor is already mainlined and was default in SuSe Linux for a long time - why dont you complain to Novel for still being one of the few companies to provide support for Reiserv3 then... person vs technology - you cant mix those because of a single individual.

Personally I think its a much bigger concern that filesystems like btrfs which ARE mainlined can end in it's users having huge data loss and corruption - yeah it's still not marked as stable and THAT is what a failure to maintain something looks like. I'd chose reiser4 over something that is broken by design despite that btrfs is mainlined. It's 6 pages of useless comments on a positive news article which unfortunately is somewhat wrong in it's statements, and 90% of them talk about renaming the project and calling it 'ninafs' - thats just sick...

In most parts of the world, a diagnosis within the autism spectrum disorders called 'Asperger Syndrome' - The guy who first wrote about the medical condition, Hans Asperger which also named the condition 'autistic psychopaths', has been directly proved to be part of the child euthanasia in nazi-germany at tye Am Spiegelgrund, when Hitler was their leader. He selectively chose the faith of up to multiple hundreds of child ( (murders) for 'research'. In 2019, the name is still not changed because of it in the ICD 10/11 which among others is us used by WHO, even though this in this case, it was in fact the murders and his actions which made it possible to describe the diagnosis which in almost all parts of the world still using the name Asperger syndrome, except for the ECD which put the diagnosis under the autism spectrum in general because the allegedly lack of medical descriptions about the disorder. TLDR; Even today the name is used despite being a child murderer and part of the nazi party. This is as close as you get to 'Hitlers syndrome' yet it still holds it's original name.
For those of you who are so offensed by the file system whose name was also used because he was at the very least the visionary behind it's design and model, compare the two identical cases (in principle) and see how little the name of something actually means.

Many ran from the project back then and they'll know why. I can very much understand and appreciate their reaction. Those who remained and even kept the name are then simply mislead by false ideals. Writing software isn't everything in life, but you won't find out if you never do anything else.

In this case,
The event of developing that software is the base of a monstrosity, which ended in the killing of Nina Sharanova..
This is not a *tipical case*, like when you work has for a Company, that then works for a Client..
Here everything is the same thing, since they were married, and was a "family business"
This his different,
And the fact that some very well known key Open-Source developers left the Community was exactly because it started to become too much toxic..
This Toxicity, come when people that arrive from a Sauvage Capitalism, enters into the Open-Source sphere..
This people are toxic, and have no values or moral, they don't feet into the spirit of Open Source World,
But they don't stop to arrive...unfortunately.
Its pollution all over the place nowadays..

Once? Its one of the more modern approaches to innovative features and design written entirely from scratch.
I also think it is really sad that reiserfs4 has not received the consideration it deserves. (On pure technical merit)
Also nobody seems to think that it is a big deal that ZFS performance drops like a rock when it gets past 80% space utilization.
I have a lot of respect for ZFS and used it a lot; both with ZOL and zfs-fuse back then. It is rock solid, but this 80% limit problem has been a thorn in my side for years.
