I decided to write a HPFS for FreeBSD some time ago, but once I got
started I realized I didn't know anything about the vnode stuff -
or how to begin going about this sort of thing.

I havn't heard of anything to do with HPFS since, so I believe there's
not even anything in the pipeline.

Maybe sometime when I'm less busy.
