Note: There are sources on the talk page, but I'm not sure if they show notability. Joe Chill (talk) 12:21, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep, just barely. Although the article doesn't say it, the author of this embedded file system is an Intel guy, Jared Hulbert, so there are a bunch or presentations and papers either by him or other Intel guys at various embedded systems or Linux conferences [1] [2] [3]. It has received a little independent coverage as well, a paragraph in [4] Linux Journal, an overview [5] in lwn.net, and in a round-up of other file systems for embedded devices [6] in LinuxDevices.com, which appears to have an ok editorial policy [7]. The author of this last paper, Justin Treon, also works at Intel in the embedded group, and he collaborated with Hulbert on this stuff [8], so it's not terribly independent coverage. This file system is a pretty new contender, and so far there's no mention of it in any Linux or embedded systems book. (Thanks to User:Tothwolf for listing the sources on the article's talk page, and to Joe Chill for pointing me to them.) Pcap ping 16:18, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
