I agree.  It has to look and feel like an OS to my apps.  I need to NFS=20
share it to systems so they can access it as NFS clients.  Besides,=20
MogileFS doesn't even sound like a filesystem:

 From the website:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
MogileFS is not:

     * POSIX Compliant -- you don't run regular Unix applications or=20
databases against MogileFS. It's meant for archiving write-once files=20
and doing only sequential reads. (though you can modify a file by way of =

overwriting it with a new version)
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

As far as your clustre fs goes, I need to see more info.  You mentioned=20
it's wonderful features to me, but I'd like to see a website to read=20
more, and download source code..
