Coda is based on AFS. Are Coda-Features still superior to OpenAFS ? Is Coda still experimental ?

CODA's feature that is superior to AFS is that it can do read-write replication. The CODA folks at CMU have expressly said, "CODA is a research project and will never be fully supported." That said there are people who (allegedly) use it in production and there's an ad-hoc bunch of folk supporting each other.

Of course, the same can be said for running TOPS-20 on your Powerbook. :-)

IN another vein, I wonder if this page shouldn't be merged with Andrew File System .

Why is the kernel driver not in the Linux kernel?

If someone has good information on that question, an addition to the page would be appreciated. --Nomeata (talk) 10:22, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Question about help from contributors

How should and to what extent should contributors to the OpenAFS project help with merging the openafs entry into the afs entry and keep the information up to date? Gsvolt (talk) 16:07, 22 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
