Is fossil not a file system if it doesn't maintain a disk cache
and only dumps to venti?  Perhaps our disagreement would be
solved by saying that its not a disk file system.  Don't you
oppress me we with narrow minded views of what a file system
is and isn't.  Queue brzr saying sometimes a file system is just
a file system....except when its not.  Anyone have
any cigars?
