The Ubuntu Feisty repositories have reiser4 packages, I think it's good,
because
people have the chance to use reiser4, but without the reiser4 patches
compiled in the Ubuntu kernel, it's really useless.

I think alot of people really like to test reiser4 and ext4, would it be
great if there's a testing kernel for it?

like Linux 2.6.20-6-HowardHughes
