Was mich interessiert ob (Wenn ich das noch richtig in erinnerung habe
XFS resizing capabilities) resizing als feature mit veroeffentlicht wird.
Weiterhin meine ich das XFS doch darauf getuned werden kann 
Grosse Streams abzukoennen (Thema Digital Video Schnitt) und das
XFS auf garantierte Antwortszeiten getrimmt werden kann.

Ich hoffe das die features alle mitveroeffentlicht werden. Zusammen
mit dem LVM von Heinz Mauelshagen eine geniale loesung.
