Whit,

I seems to me, when Jon asked for an alternative to glusterfs and I said to Jon you can look at
moosefs, I should be able to do that without 3 months of testing and data.

However, it just turns out that we have the data and the tests, so we will
post it here. I have this feeling that the moment we do, Jeff will start
attacking us but honestly it is not for the benefit of Jeff it is for the benefit
of other's looking for an alternative.

Best,
Fevzi
