I've been working on a FUSE based filesystem called zmugfs which uses the 1.2.1 JSON api. It's not yet released but I wanted to share some of my progress especially with how far I got tonight.

You can read about the application on my blog:

Here is a screenshot of an album showing the images in Nautilus on Fedora Core 6 (Linux):

Let me know what you think. It is far from being finished but moving along nicely.

I've posted on your blog at least once about this, but I'll say it again: SOOO COOL!

Thanks so much for doing this! I can't wait to play with it when it's released. :)

The performance isn't that great, but I think it's my approach :) making lots of round trip calls with no caching. I'm thinking I can cache a lot of the data locally to avoid having to make so many trips. But I left the optimization for later. :)

My primary goals for release 0.1 is to get the read only portion done.

An extremely good idea.. Waiting to see how you get along.. I had thought of porting this to MacFUSE but have been sidetracked over the past few months...
