Thanks for the kind words, Mario and Ivan.

It would be possible, though as Mario's case shows there are 
compatibility problems between various Linux distros (which could 
quickly become a support nightmare). Also, I think I'd have to downgrade 
to the lowest Fuse API version commonly in use, which is less than ideal.

For the moment I think it's best to copy the sources if you want to 
write a new file system. If you don't touch the fusehi-related sources, 
you'll be able to simply replace them when there are updates. And if you 
do touch them, send a patch along so I can merge your changes in :)

Cheers,
Dan
