Basically, we need to integrate a number of existing or
already-prototyped features:

e2compress
ACLs
POSIX security capability masks
Logical volume management

plus some new features under implementation/design right now:

reliable on-line dump
journalling
btree directories and extent maps
Hierarchial Storage Management support

I'll announce a mailing list as soon as we start doing this for 2.3;
right now, most of my own time is preparing 2.1 for codefreeze; there
are a number of performance issues to deal with right now.
