The VFS code implemented by Tim Potter is being integrated into Samba
3.0. This code allows Samba to dynamically load alternative file IO
implementations, replacing the Posix IO layer normally used.
The VFS system was initially developed to allow easy integration of
Samba with a large tape silo system, but will find many other uses,
including a clean way of doing automatic cr/lf translation.
A Perl binding for the VFS system has also been implemented, although
it is unlikely to see widespread use!
