Yes, now that everyone has migrated to GNU Hurd, which is fully supported by e2fsprogs, there's no need for Windows which no one uses anymore :-) The reason I have to care about e2fsprogs support for Windows is because the Windows build of the Android SDK Platform tools includes a Windows binary of mke2fs, so that it can be used by 'fastboot format'. I am sure that Ted would be very unhappy if Android had to bring back 'make_ext4fs' due to e2fsprogs removing Windows support... (One way out of this for Android would be to remove fastboot's support for formatting filesystems, and just have it support wiping them. The actual formatting would then always happen on the Android device itself, using the Linux build of e2fsprogs. I'm not sure why that can't be done; however, I do know that it's been brought up many times before and still hasn't happened...) Of course, a second problem that I ran into after I sent this patch without properly testing it, is that misc/mke2fs.c is hard-coding unix_io_manager. So an additional fix would be needed to make it use windows_io_manager on Windows, now that Windows has its own windows_io_manager instead of unix_io_manager. Paulo, just to double check: was your intent when adding the windows_io_manager that it *always* replace unix_io_manager on Windows? - Eric
