PirannaFS is a modern and extensible general-purpose filesystem developed in Python that uses a SQLite database to manage its metadata. The idea behind it is to have a minimal core so the user can adapt it to their own personal purposes through a plugin system, allowing from a no-files, pure metadata filesystem up to ACLs, copy-on-write, logging, network distributed or whatever the user wants.
This project won the first prize at the Madrid edition and the first honorable mention at the national edition of the V Free Software University Championship, Spain 2011.
