Greetings and salutations!  You'll notice that we've turned on a
bit of "proper Summer" for you.  Go to the beach, if you can.
Immersion in water is one of the traditional remedies.  If you
can't, the trick is to sit very still and drink cold beer.
Continuously...

Coolness.  Most of the bugs life happens on the mailing list
anyway.  There's the occasional get-together, but I don't know
that any meetings are imminent.

Also coolness.  If anyone was going to build a good file system
from scratch, it'd be Matthew Dillon.  Not experiencing any real
problems with UFS/FFS, myself, but I dare say that it's getting a
bit long in the tooth.

Can't help you there, I'm afraid, but there are probably a goodly
few others on the list who might.

Cheers,
