Hello,

I would like to apply a new project "HTree Directory Index and Journal
in ext2fs" in GSoC 2011. This project is not in ideas page. But this
project can improve ext2fs in FreeBSD.

Last year, I have participated GSoC 2010 and have implemented a
preallocation algorithm in ext2fs and make it can read ext4 file system
in read-only mode. I have try to read htree dir index in ext4 read-only
mode. Yet I don't finish it. I am plan to implement a htree dir index in
ext2fs before midterm evaluation.

Next I will try to implement journal in ext2fs. I think I can borrow
some ideas from WAPBL in NetBSD.

When you say 'journal in ext2fs' do you mean ext3-compatible or something different entirely? I don't think that a journalling addition to our ext2fs which would not make it compatible with ext3 would be useful.
