[freenet-dev] New Java 1.6 APIs for disk space

[toad]

There are some interesting new APIs in java 1.6...

Are the java 1.6 disk space APIs (File.getFreeSpace, File.getTotalSpace, 
combined with the pre-existing File.listRoots) of any use in making the
node more user friendly? What could we do with them?
- storeSize=10% [ of available disk space ]
-- maybe as default ?
--- maybe in the installer ?
- accurately diagnose when faults are due to lack of disk space, and warn
  the user
- anything else?

These should be fairly trivial for Classpath to implement, so the fact
that they are new doesn't mean we shouldn't use them. Fred should be able
to work without them however (and not provide the above functionality).
