Shared block device

[David Nicol]

things to look at:

ENBD  (Extended Network Block Device) to share the block devices

redhat GFS for using the block devices (or reccommended BCPs on
ENBD mailing lists)

Coda and Intermezzo for distributed file systems that support detach, reattach
(although how that would be better than a svn checkout directly on the mobile
device is somewhat of a mystery -- is Luke still drive-space-constrained for
source code projects?)
