Magma - Summary
Magma is a multihomed network filesystem based on distributed hash tables. Is written in C. It's under developement since August 2006. It's developed using libfuse and openssl. No proprietary or closed source has been used and will never be. Its primary goal is to provide robust filesystem able to scale and to resist to network or server failure.
Magma store files (directory, symlink, chardev, ...) on a distributed bunch of servers. Implemented features are: basic support for objects (files, directories, other...) and client/server protocol based on libfuse.
Future developement will add: redundancy, load balancing between nodes, RPC NFS interface, cryptographic layer and more.

Many many bug got fixed and a lot of important stuff entered.
First of all: FUSE protocol were rewritten using symbolic names for macro, allowing better comprehension of code. New macros also care for byte order conversion, even for 64 bit integers. (conversion should still be tested on different platforms)
