Good memory... uh, sort of.  :-)  It was probably me you're
thinking of, but the point of the project was solely a
"virtual" file system, to be used exclusively as a tool
for supporting automated testing.  It has no concept of
persistence, no support for it in the design, and wouldn't
be what would help anyone in this respect.  Sorry.

(Work on it has actually not progressed lately, because
there is no additional requirement driving the work.
The primitive initial state of the tool suffices so far.)
