Nope, haven't had a chance to play with it, although I've kept it in the back of my head for one of those rainy afternoons :) Reminds me a little of BFS (one more article here as well).

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

In other news, I read about sshfs for OSX today:

http://mac.pqrs.org/sshfs/

turns out it runs in userland. This is pretty useful stuff. Kind of interesting how these postmodern filesystems are evolving (such as the gmailfs of a couple years ago).
