140	Driver for ISO 9660 (cdfs) filesystem	Jiri Svoboda		"Implement a native HelenOS driver for the ISO 9660 file system, possibly with appropriate extensions (Joliet).

 Details::
 The new driver should be realized as a standalone server process which plugs itself into the HelenOS VFS framework and implements the VFS and libfs interfaces in the ISO 9660 specific way.

 What Gains and Benefits will this bring?::
 This will allow us to read CD and DVD images and media. This feature is not only an expected capability of each operating system that aims to be practically usable, but it will also enable HelenOS to boot directly from a CD/DVD medium without the need to use a RAM disk.

 Difficulty::
 medium

 Required skills::
 A successful applicant will have good skills of programming in the C language and also the ability to program in a multi-server environment, which includes communicating using HelenOS IPC.

 Documentation::

 - [wiki:FSDesign Implementation and design of the file system layer]
 - [wiki:IPC IPC for Dummies]

 Possible mentors::
