OpenSUSE considers dropping reiserfs

As Jeff Mahoney notes in thismessage to the openSUSE factory list, the reiserfs filesystem has beenunmaintained for years and lacks many of the features that users have cometo expect. He has thus proposed removing reiserfs from openSUSE Tumbleweedimmediately.

I recognize that there may be people out there with diskscontaining reiserfs file systems. If these are in active use, Iwould seriously encourage migrating to something activelymaintained.
