[ros-dev] Request for a project

I explained briefly, however I warned that this project requires  
extensive IFS knowledge, while actual underlying filesystem skills  
may not be so useful (since FullFAT/ntfs-3g is being used).

Thinking about it I agree with Ged that it's better for Sudhir to try  
to pick another area. Though, of course, he's free to develop his own  
fastfat_new as his university work, if he feels like it. But I won't  
guarantee we will accept all patches, or that we stop working on that  
module ourselves.


WBR,
Aleksey Bragin.
