> Anybody who would suggest these is not a storage professional, and should not be making any claims about how long it might take to implement filesystem semantics on top of what Torus already has.
The entire post reeks of condescension and arrogance.
I also don't like the potshots at marketing. I think Torus is of to a very good start. It's a project after all and they are claiming things to set across their vision. They didn't "lie" about things being here already but it's going to happen in the near future. What's wrong with that? Because "storage experts" think it takes years to build ? Sorry, visionaries don't listen to "experts" and set out doing things.
The Torus folks really are making huge promises for things that have, in other projects, required years to implement, and they've waved away very complex tasks as merely minor implementation details.
