I'm not sure why some of the mails got lost. I checked that they were
sent, so presumably it would be some size limit on the linux-fsdevel
list or something like that caused them to be censored.

The full set of patches can be viewed on the linux-nfs.org website. See

 http://client.linux-nfs.org/Linux-2.6.x/2.6.18-rc1/
