I second the original poster (but not the "modern" comment part).  I have a 
lot of burned and original CD-roms with the RockRidge extensions which are 
virtually useless under OS/2.  This is various mirrors and web-hierachies 
which are intended for a Unix environment.
I would very much appreciate support of the long names (just that) of the 
Rock Ridge format in the CD filesystem.
Regards,
  Thorbjoern
