通りで最近ReiserFSの名前を聞かなかったわけだ。
これは個人的にはかなり衝撃的な事件だなぁ。。。

で、当然のことながらReiserFSの将来について懸念する声があって、Wikipediaより引用しておくと。

Future of ReiserFS

Following his arrest, a number of people in the free software community expressed concern over the future of Reiser's filesystem (ReiserFS). For example, a Slashdot thread on the subject of his arrest garnered over 1,600 comments, significant numbers of which discussed the future of the filesystem.[50] However, the employees of Namesys have said that they will continue to work and that Reiser's arrest doesn't slow down the software development in the immediate future. They confirmed that if the case expands over a longer time, they will seek solutions to ensure the long-term future of Namesys.[51] In order to afford increasing legal fees, it was announced on December 21, 2006 that Hans Reiser was going to sell his company.[52] As of 2008, Namesys has not been sold.

Reiser氏はNemesys社を売りたかったけど、未だ売れてないってことだね。
まぁ、会社を買う方も心象は悪いよなぁ、、、今やReiser氏の名前が付いたファイルシステムってブランドイメージ的に凄い悪いからね。せめて名前変えるとかしないと。
