Description mbendiks 2000-10-07 05:40:01 UTC 
	In MS-DOS, the usage of the system attribute roughly corresponds to the
	typical use of the SF_IMMUTABLE attribute in Unix. I think changing the
	current semantics would be an improvement as far as compatibility goes,
	and there should be few POLA issues with it.

Fix: In /sys/msdosfs; diff -u4
How-To-Repeat: 
	not relevant.

Use short names for mailing list to make searches    
using the web query form work with the shown responsible. 

This also makes open PR show up in the summery mail.

Hey Tom, you as a maintainer of msdosfs (afair) can you have a look at 
the ticket?

Ken,

I think your recent patches to update file flags probably obsoletes this PR?

Note:
I did a quick pass but if you are getting this email it might be worthwhile to double check to see if this bug ought to be closed.

Assume John Baldwin is right and this is OBE.
