Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

5The author wishes to express his appreciation and thanks to:
6Andrew Tridgell (Samba team) for his early suggestions about smb/cifs VFS
7improvements. Thanks to IBM for allowing me the time and test resources to pursue
8this project. Jim McDonough from IBM (and the Samba Team) for his help.
9The IBM Linux JFS team for explaining many esoteric Linux filesystem features.
10Dave Boutcher of IBM Rochester (author of the OS/400 smb/cifs filesystem client)
11for proving years ago that a very good smb/cifs client could be done on a Unix like
12operating system. Volker Lendecke, Andrew Tridgell, Urban Widmark, John Newbigin
13and others for their work on the Linux smbfs module over the years. Thanks to
14the other members of the Storage Network Industry Association CIFS Technical
15Workgroup for their work specifying this highly complex protocol and finally
16thanks to the Samba team for their technical advice and encouragement.
