the fact that it's not protocol-compatable does lower (but not
totally eliminate) its value to me. if your version doesn't run
on Plan 9 and host fossil, that does, as well. on the other hand,
even the ideas are worth a lot, and if you can put file systems
on top of it (like fossil does, rather than just using it as an
archival vault) that my unix systems can use, that's a big win.

those first two points make me skeptical, but i'll be checking it
out today. fix those two (so why didn't you use the venti code?)
and provide a few tools my VP of Marketing can use, and get an
OS X port, and i'll buy a few coppies.
