This is not how you get new friends.. this is how you get terrorists. I for one hope Europe stops looking at US as the protector and understands it it the destroyer.
I feel a strong need for something like AFS when there is a environment with lots of different hosts, servers and clients.
It is as far as I know the greatest distributed filesystem with superb features like the backupsystem (which is like snaphots you can mount in your filetree)
Just the thing that you can easily have a common filestructure for the whole company wherever you are and not dependent on what OS you are running...
I do not share your view and you probably should tell us if you have had experience with AFS.
Probably not.

nag nag,
Grow up.
AFS is a great filesystem.
The OpenSource alternatives (1) up to date is not even close.
1. Coda, intermezzo.
Its source not binaries.
Compile it yourself.
If you need to fix something, well, mail the ibm guys the fixes.
That is a strange thing to say.
