I want to be a mentor for the proposal "Hot File system Backup using Ext4 Snapshots"

[sergey ivanov]

Hi,
I'm Sergey Ivanov, I'd like to be a mentor for the proposal "Hot File
system Backup using Ext4 Snapshots".  Freenode IRC Nick: seriv.
I work in OmniTI as a system administrator. I'd like to have good
snapshots with means to serialize the changes made on the filesystem
between them and to send/receive these from one filesystem to anothen
on linux.  I use this every day in solaris on zfs and miss it in
linux. I was a packager in Altlinux team (dovecot, reiser4...), and
helped by testing and benchmarking filesystems.
If I need to send more details or information, please tell what and
where to supply.

Sergey:

I'm going to bring you over to summer-coding-discuss, which is where
we talk about the current GSoC work.

Have you signed up at http://google-melange.com and requested to be a
mentor for "The Fedora Project"?

Hopefully someone else on this list knows what is going on with this
project idea.
