Hey Herbert,

I think you did a good job, still on a personal note, you're being too
aggressive. After all I'm saying what you're saying, just in different
words.

I explained my however under your comment. It's not so polite to quote
part of the answer and comment. The triple point '...' means a
"suspension" of the phrase or that more is to come later.

My however was to do with the context/group/user types of quota and
their relation to guarantee allocation. I was thinking that some type
awareness between the three types of quota was necessary in the kernel:

Cheers.
