Let's concentrate on the masses first. Haiku will probably sit along side an
existing Windows installation, or most people will have their data backed up
on to a Fat 16/32 or NTFS formatted drive. They'll want access to that data.
It's only probably <5% of the market that are interested in Reiser, ZFS or
Ext2/3.
With regards to WiFi, the idea for a Haiku NDIS wrapper sounds most logical
for Haiku in the short term; to me anyways, since the idea is to attract
people to Haiku. If there's no networking in the OS, it's probably pretty
useless to most people, and therefore better to have support than not have
it.

This one supports version ReiserFS version 3(.5/6), which is pretty much
out-dated by now, and it is read-only. We probably want to port the current
version 4 directly from the Linux sources.
Why not port ZFS? :)) There is even a little manual on porting ZFS.
