gjournal alpha released

| Kernel

gjournal is one of the Google Summer of Code projects that is FreeBSD related. It provides data journalling service that will be useful for frequent randomized area writing, just like write clustering.

Today, the first public alpha version has been released.

Please note that this is not intentional to replace SoftUpdates nor a real journalling file system, as the metadata consistency protection is different than just do data writing journalling. However, this indicates a good way of providing better performance for file systems.

如题。小的困难,大的困难,无论如何,如果因此而退缩,又如何能够有大的成就?每个人在团队中的存在价值,不就是去解决其他人解决不了的问题吗?

portsnap added to base

| Security

Colin has finally added portsnap and related stuff (bsdiff, etc) to FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT. This would not be MFC’ed before 6.0-RELEASE, but still good enough because it will attract more users to use it.

Portsnap is a secure and efficient alternative to the current ports tree update approach. Since it goes through HTTP, it is much easier than other existing methods to use it to obtain ports, especially from some brain-damaged administrated networks.

真是有点光看贼吃肉了,没看见贼挨打……

| Life

有些误会我不想解释,因为解释了很难说不会造成新的误解,而正如罗老师所说,人生,总有那么几回踩到大便的时候,比如虽然那个人不错,和我关系也不错,但这件事就很大便,至少让我觉得有点郁闷——我知道你不容易,能帮的忙我尽量帮,但是以目前我不断被各种大小事件PREEMPT的状况,我什么时候能集中精力做点所谓的「大事」?
