Universal Disk Format (UDF) filesystem for FreeBSD

[scottl at FreeBSD.org]

All,

Available from http://people.freebsd.org/~scottl/udf are patches for a
UDF filesystem driver for FreeBSD.  UDF is the filesystem used for
packet-written CD-RW's, and is found on most commercial DVD-Video disks.
These patches allow a FreeBSD 5-CURRENT system to mount read-only a disk
formatted with this filesystem.  Although the UDF standard also supports
packet-written CD-R, these patches do not implement this functionality
yet.  Read-write support is also not implemented yet, but work will
begin shortly on it.  Patches for FreeBSD 4-STABLE are maintained by
Jeroen Ruigrok <asmodai at wxs.nl> and can be found at
http://www.softweyr.com/asmodai/projects/udf.

I encourage anyone to try these patches out and provide feedback.  
They are the product of a year of free-time develpment and have been
tested against disks created with Roxio's DirectCD and Nero's InCD
packages.  I also plan to commit these patches to the FreeBSD CVS
repository soon.
