I highly doubt that, since, even if Mac OS/X is released on time, it will be
a while before it is both usable and stable enough to replace current ASIP
installations. While Mac OS/X Server (a currently shipping pseudo-product)
does appear to do a good job at IP connectivity, I don't have any relevant
benchmarks in regards to performance.
Why would Mac OS/X not be able to connect via NFS - it's BSD based, so it
should have all the relevant nfs clients built-in.
How would that affect the usability or existence of netatalk?
