Re: [9fans] Synthetic file systems in linux?

["LiteStar numnums" <litestar@gmail.com>]

Couldn't you do something even with VFS? If not, FUSE (the crunchy
bits not withstanding) is somewhat mature as well... There should be
plenty of examples with those two options. I think FUSE has FTP & HTTP
fs, which could be 'cribbed'.

If work and leisure are soon to be subordinated to this one utopian
principle -- absolute busyness -- then utopia and melancholy will come
to coincide: an age without conflict will dawn, perpetually busy --
and without consciousness.
