GParted Live Now Supports Microsoft's New Filesystem, ReFS
♲ Softpedia News (Silviu Stahie)
ReFS?
GParted Live is a small bootable GNU/Linux distribution that has a lot of features and that can be used in operations like creating, reorganizing, and deleting disk partitions on a variety of filesystems. A new stable update has been made available and the operating system is now at version 0.21.0.
The updates made to the GParted Live distro are usually not really consistent and the developers make changes in small increments. The same can be said about the latest iteration of the distro.

Wow, they finally shipped a new file system. Only 7 years late!I never heard about ReFS. I thought that they were still using NTFS as "usual".@nathan@microca.st Yeah, I guess this is in part the WinFS that talked about already when the coming MS OS was codenamed Longhorn.Claes Wallin (韋嘉誠) at 2015-01-31T19:01:15Z

That's really cool. I can imagine that it will be developed into a technology that will have lots of uses everywhere. Seeing things that we can't see with the naked eye is fantastic!Another reason why open source is good.

Congratulations, and thank you!!
I recently experienced my 15 years of thinking at the beginning of each year: "I really should contribute enough to Debian this year so that I might be able to become a Debian developer".
Your accomplishment is much more impressive, Stefano. :)
