Don't you think it's rather bad form to come on a mailing list for one 
project and recommend a competitor based on FUD?  I could go on the 
MooseFS mailing list to tell all comers how it risks your data by 
ignoring O_SYNC, how it's over-the-fence-ware instead of true open 
source, how it doesn't have the feature set or extensibility that 
GlusterFS does - all actual *facts* BTW - but I'd expect to get thrown 
off the list for that and rightly so.  If you want to be constructive, 
you could start by identifying the version you used and describing the 
problems you saw.  That would be fine.  "We had unspecified problems, 
use $otherproject instead" is not fine.  It reflects poorly on both you 
and MooseFS that you would resort to such tactics.
