> Everything has some ad-hoc implied interface, documented who knows where, if at all, and this giant hack is somehow something to admire? Jumping ship to DBus is not the solution to this problem. The problem is that the current incarnation of everything-is-a-file is not radical enough. Reiser4 had some very interesting ideas with regards to unifying the many different information namespaces, it's a shame they never became mainstream. I'm hoping that future innovation won't be disinfranchised by people who want to abandon filesystems entirely and switch to another ad-hoc model that isn't really much better.
