He is obnoxious. This amounts to whining.

Oh, the ext4 developers are treated so-and-so, they get into the mainline from the get go. We poor Reiser-developers are discriminated against on purely political reasons. Like for example that the evil people reviewing code aren't mature enough to deal with people OBVIOUSLY much more clever than themselves !.

He doesn't state it just exactly like that, but that's how it comes trough.

To his credit Hans has improved a lot in recent history and he is very responsive to comments on his code. I think everyone should lay off him for a while, it must be exausting to have your code sitting in -mm for +2 years and having nobody do anything about it despite having addressed every issue pointed out.

So give Hans (and peace for that matter) a chance, he is doing good work and his attitude has really improved a lot.

actually, he hasn't come close to addressing every issue with his code.

specificly there is still a huge issue with his plugin approach. it's a case of him and the kernel developers just not agreeing on the basic concept of havng that functionality in a filesystem
