I've started the process of essentially reporting xfs to FreeBSD, (alot of stuff has changed in XFS) It is still quite a ways off but I hope to have mount and read support working again shortly. The lastest work can be found at. http://oss.sgi.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=cattelan/FreeBSD_svn/.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/xfs-work I do realize that I will never have enough time to fully support XFS but I hope to at least get it off the ground again and hopefully build some interest. -Russell Cattelan
