Then, for the sake of not making other potential Reiser4 contributors lose their time -- falsely believing in the technical meritocracy of FOSS -- I suggest that you place the above statement at the GNU Parted site. Last I read (< http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/ >) *before submitting my Reiser4 patch* I could not find a notice *explicitly* stating that Reiser4 work is not to be evaluated on its technical merits but rather on a personal 'morality', religious fanaticism, and/or subjective 'altruism' and/or prejudice. I even checked for the relevant 'Reiser' string at the development site (< http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/parted/ >) with NULL results. Notwithstanding, selectively applying a personal subjective criteria to Reiser4 and not, say JFS for instance, seems more of a contradictory attitude --as code contributions from organizations with exponentially darker backgrounds (< http://listverse.com/2013/10/24/10-big-business-nazi-profiteers/ >) than Reiser are included -- specifically in Parted -- without compunction.
