That was my point... the way it was worded your comment could be
interpreted as the same as reiserfs being kaput. I merely pointed out
that the original programmers company/website of an open-source project
whose code is and has been included in the mainline kernel for a very
long time being kaput is far far from the same as the filesystem itself
being kaput - which was the last part of your comment.
