Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] Google is apparently planning the GDrive...

["Shawn Parker" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

a guy used FUSE to develop a google file system drive. i used it until
google made it priority to change code just enough to make it break.
they changed the code every month or so. finally, i just stopped using
it.

it's unfortunate that google caused so much trouble for one guy's
project just to turn around and do it themselves. at what point is it
necessary to 'brand' everything google?

although, his project seems to be working, again. :)
