I think it is more than a little unfair to let the ext2 folks rewrite VFS and ext2 in parallel, and then announce an impending code freeze right after VFS has been radically changed.
For the record, it wasn't the "ext2 folks" that rewrote VFS, and most of the changes happened fairly early in the 2.3 kernel series. If you had been following the 2.3 kernel development, you should have had plenty of time to deal with the VFS changes. It wasn't like the VFS changes went in just before the code freeze.
