Filesystems in R2, R3, ....

Hi,

What class of filesystem do you have to plan to have for R2 and so on? For R1, for backward-compat, I think you implement a kind of BFS. But for next releases do you have to plan to change it? For example, introducing snapshoting (like ext3cow or ZFS)

Thanks,
Xan.

Haiku already uses OpenBFS.

I have heard (long ago) OpenBFS 2 being mentioned, but I do not know if there are any firm specs and/or plans for it.
