Essay Format
I started working on the main page. The bullets are to be expanded. Other group are are working in their respective discussion pages but I think it's all right to put our work in progress on the front page. Thoughts?--Lmundt 16:14, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
- Gbint 02:03, 7 October 2010 (UTC) Lmundt; what do you think of listing the capacities of the file system under major features? I was thinking that we could overview the features in brief, then delve into each one individually.
- --Lmundt 14:31, 7 October 2010 (UTC) I was thinking about the major structure... I like what your suggesting in one section. So here is the structure I am thinking of.
- Intro
- Section One ZFS
- Major feature 1
- Major feature 2
- Major feature 3
- Section Two Legacy File Systems
- Legacy File System1( FAT32 ) - what it does
- Legacy File System2( ext2 ) - what it does
- Contrast them with ZFS
- Section Three Current File Systems
- NTFS?
- ext4?
- Contrast them with ZFS
- Section Four future file Systems
- BTRFS
- WinFS or ??
- Contrast them with ZFS
- Conclusion
What does everyone think of this format? While everyone should contribute to section one we could divvy up the rest.
