Anca, Ted is not trolling me in any fashion. He is a (very
successful) tool space and kernel developer and his opinion and
experience about how tools should interact with the kernel project is
of utmost importance.

Clearly Ted thinks that filesystem tools should stay separate from
the kernel repo. I agree with him that the case for filesystem tool
integration is weaker than for deeply kernel integrated tools such as
perf or kvm and calling him a troll is not a way to settle that
honest disagreement in any case.

Thanks,

Ingo
