The mailing list and repository will also be removed shortly.""</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1256517686.usr105634.jpg" /></p><p>This was an open-source project, but never materialized as the intended default file system for OS X. It also showed up in Snow Leopard Server for a short time but was removed from there as well. It all stems from difficulties obtaining proper licensing according to the article. I don't know much at all about this, but thought I would post it in case anyone out there was interested in knowing you won't be seeing it after all!&nbsp;</p>
