<h3>Filesystem</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>UFS Journalling</strong> : Add meta-data journalling to
the UFS filesystem. The goal is to increase the reliability and
speed of meta-data operations under the UFS filesystem.
Candidates should have at least a cursory understanding of
filesystem data structures (inodes, free lists, directories) and a
strong desire to learn more about such systems. This project would
be a major contribution to anyone's resume, but it is not for the
faint of heart. <a

href="mailto:scottl@FreeBSD.org">&a.scottl;</a>, and <a
href="mailto:hmp@FreeBSD.org">&a.hmp;</a> are coordinating.</li>
<li><strong>UFS Journalling</strong> : Add transaction journalling and
playback to the UFS filesystem. The goal is to increase the reliability
of the filesystem and greatly reduce the need for a full 'fsck' after
a crash or power loss. This is a project that deals with not only
the filesystem internals, but also the VM and buffer/cache systems,
so it is an excellent opportunity to learn about many fundamental
aspects of an operating system.<br>
Work is already in progress on this task, but more help is always
needed and welcome. Candidates should have at least a cursory
understanding of filesystem data structures (inodes, free lists,
directories) and a strong desire to learn more about such systems.

<li><strong>Autofs</strong> : Create the autofs filesystem from a
specification. Candidates should have some filesystem knowledge
