[$] Changing the filesystem-maintenance model

Date:
Wed, 17 Jul 2024 14:52:41 +0000

Description:
Maintenance of the kernel is a difficult, often thankless, task; how it is
being handled, the role of maintainers, burnout, and so on are recurring
topics at kernel-related conferences.  At
the 2024 Linux Storage,
Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit , Josef Bacik and
Christian Brauner led a session to discuss possible changes to the way
filesystems are maintained, though Bacik took the lead role (and the podium). 
 There are a number of interrelated topics,
including merging new filesystems, removing old ones, making and testing 
changes
throughout the filesystem tree, and more.
