[Dclug] Slides up, was Re: DCLUG meeting reminder: tonight, Wed, Aug 19, 7pm: BTRFS

[Jess Cannata]

I wasn't able to attend last night's meeting, but am very grateful for 
the slides and for the work that went into putting them together. As an 
HPC guy, I am always interested in hearing about new file systems, 
especially those that intend to be both a local and clustered (via CRFS) 
file system.

Thanks!
