kernel support for newer UDF versions (> 2.01)

kernel support for newer UDF versions (> 2.01)

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

Hi everybody.

Does someone know if it's planned (or even in the works) to support
newer versions of the UDF filesystem?
Especially the versions 2.50 and 2.60 would be very interesting for
mounting BluRay discs (and HD DVD)...

I've seen somewhere a patch but that was pretty old and AFAIK not yet
finished or included in the vanilla tree.

Best wishes,
Chris.

  There UDF project at SF: http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-udf/
I think there's a patch for 2.50 support which is quite recent (2.6.24).
I plan to merge the support when Sebastian submits it (I'm already in
contact with him regarding this).

Ah great, so 2.6.25 probably?!

Best wishes,

  Not very likely for 2.6.25 (I still don't have a patch with Sebastians's
Sign-off without which I cannot merge it and 2.6.25 merge window is closing
soon...). But hopefully it'll make it into 2.6.26.

What's the status of the UDF 2.50 patch currently? Still on track for 
inclusion in 2.6.26?

Where can I find a patch that works with the latest stable kernel? 
(2.6.24.3)
