My _guess_ is that it is a shortened form of 'RELEASE', but that's not certain - there are lots of other possibilities. If it is 'release', I'd like VFS_VRELE to be renamed to VFS_VRELEASE. Let's keep things easy where we can. If it actually is talking about a 'rele' (a technical name for an automated switch, at least in norwegian), then disregard the above. Then I think a rename to VFS_VSWITCH might be in order, though. Eivind. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
