Many people reports constantly Parted/QTparted, well actually
progsreiserfs what's a reimplementation of reiserfsprogs, thrashes
reiserfs for a while.

Yury V. Umanets only comments were "nobody ever reported such to him". You
can see more on several forums, mailing lists (parted, qtparted, etc), I
also pointed out to him these corruptions on the parted list several
times. But I don't know for who Yuri works now, recently I've seen using
both clusterfs and namesys email addresses, so maybe its not his "job"
anymore.

But definitely nobody cares about the issue for about half or one year. At
least reiserfs support should have been disabled in parted until somebody
would investigate/fix these corruptions.
