	As for efs problems, I must admit that I can't read every post in c.o.l
because I am quite busy and I often spend many days without reading c.o.l.
When I finally read it, there are so many posts that I have to select the news
that I want to read depending on the title.  I may skip some post related to
efs without even knowing.

	I think that, in case of a bug, you'd better send a mail to the
linux activists mailing list and to the software developper (me in the case
of the ext fs).  At least, you are sure that people will receive it.
