   ECS's JFS code is based directly off the OpenJFS code, that is available   
   on Netlabs FTP. OpenJFS is GPL, and so Mensys have to respect that,   
   and I'm sure they will; but they may not have thought about it.   
      
   That said, the Bootable JFS part may not be opensource, as it is not   
   part of IFS driver, it is a separate piece of software, that Mensys have    
   made by themselves.   
      
   For people still using old Warp - osFree's FreeLDR can boot on (IBM)JFS :-)   
      
   FAT32 source code is available at svn in Netlabs.

   It is better to close your mouth, and look like a fool,   
   than to open it, and remove all doubt.
