Greetings, pynfs users & others. Some unsorted pynfs news:
* My thesis report is finished (and has been some time). It's available from http://www.cendio.se/~peter/thesis/. It's also possible to order the report in printed form from Linköping University.
* Since my master's thesis work is over, I do not do any pynfs development at work anymore (and haven't done for a while). Hopefully, I can do some development in my leisure time, though. (This is the reason why I'm using the mail adress astrand@lysator.liu.se instead of peter@cendio.se now).
* Two nice people from UMich are helping with pynfs: David Joshua Widmayer and Martin Murray. Among other things, they have contributed a simple NFSv4 server to pynfs. Thanks!
* I've enabled ViewCVS access to the pynfs CVS repository. The URL is http://cvs.lysator.liu.se/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/?cvsroot=pynfs. With ViewCVS, you can get a tarball of the latest release by using the URL http://cvs.lysator.liu.se/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/.tar.gz?tarball=1&cvsroot=....
* nfs4st is still not completed, tests of 11 operations is still missing. I've done some work on OpenSuite, but only one test case is implemented yet.
* Not really pynfs news, but: The CITIs NFSv4 Linux implementation works (sort of) with User-Mode Linux. Instructions for how to set things up can be found at http://www.lysator.liu.se/~astrand/nfsv4/user-mode-linux/.
* I won't attend the Bakeoff in August, but if you are, and are having some problems with pynfs, feel free to send emails to me or this mailing list.
Happy hacking, /Peter Åstrand astrand@lysator.liu.se
