I've worked on openfiler for a while, and its quite a decent product - 
the reason why its stayed in RC stage for the openfiler-2 product, is 
because they are sorting out some commercial grade support options. If 
you dont need the commercial support, go with openfiler now!

<disclaimer>I am no longer associated with the openfiler project, or 
Xinit,  directly. I do, however, still try and help people and do some 
patches in the open source spirit of things </disclaimer>
