hi Edward and others! i have some news about reiserfs: it's now
removed from Debian installation images due to "loss of active
maintainence".
look at the message below - this is the reply i got in debian-cd
mailing list. can you say reiser3 is really well-supported now or it's
"sad but true"?

Because reiserfs is no longer actively maintained upstream
What "upstream" do they mean?
Reiserfs file system driver is in mainline kernel. It already
means active maintenance. The user-space utilities (reiserfsprogs)
are maintained by me and Jeff Mahoney.
and because
there are now good alternatives
Huh? Which ones?
Edward.
, we have made support for reiserfs
optional instead of standard.
To use reiserfs with daily images you need [blah-blah-blah]
I will send a general announcement of this change soon.
