I explained that already:
1. IMO Mr Mainz has the expertise to comment on the subject of Windows
kernel filesystem drivers
2. This specific driver has a kernel part and a userland daemon, and
can be used as a template for a Windows CEPH driver. Replace the NFS
parts with CEPH parts.
3. You wrote in https://www.spinics.net/lists/dev-ceph/msg06898.html
that one of the better choices for a CEPH Windows driver is a RDBSS
driver. ms-nfs41-client uses RDBSS.
