Could I get a copy of the 2.2 version to satisfy my curiosity?

Since (expirimental) writeable UFS exists in the current kernel, and I
assume your implementation is a patch to the existing UFS code, I
don't imagine it would be difficult.  I'll try and do it if the person
you mention doesn't have time.

Is there any point in doing ACLs if you haven't already?
