Quote of the week

We need to get away from the idea that we have to support old filesystems forever because someone, somewhere might have an old disk on the shelf with that filesystem on it and they might plug it in one day. If that day ever happens, they can go to the effort of booting an era-relevant distro in a VM to extract that data. It makes no sense to put an ongoing burden on current development to support this sort of rare, niche use case.
