Hi,

I see some of you are talking about GSoC participation. I'm also
thinking of it.

I have MacBookPro booting both MacOSX and Linux. Now Linux can write the
filesystem safely only when HFS Plus journal is off. My life would be
more better if Linux have complete HFS Plus filesystem read/write
support.

So I'm thinking of implementing HFS Plus Journal support on Linux. I've
searched and found a technote about HFS Plus format describe its Journal
[1].

How do you think about it?
Looks like a nice self-contained, project proposal, good luck!
Thanks. I need someone to mentor me :) How can I find him/her? Maybe I
should post developing mailing list. But I don't find HFS+ developing
list :(
You need to propose projects for GSoC, the mentor matching comes
afterward.  Please go read the procedures for how the program works.

best of luck,
