[guardian-dev] Quick IOCipher Questions

[Mark Murphy]

I am looking to add a short section in my book on IOCipher, and I
wanted to make sure that my interpretation of a few things is correct:

1. The VirtualFileSystem is initializing a magic, behind the scenes,
native-level global that File uses, right?

2. The reason for #1 is to minimize changes in the File API from the
java.io edition, or something else?

3. As a result of #1, we cannot have multiple VirtualFileSystem objects, right?

4. mount(), instead of mount(String key), creates an unencrypted
VirtualFileSystem, right?

5. In the pantheon of stability (production, RC, beta, alpha,
pre-alpha, "if it doesn't cause a rupture in the space-time continuum,
we will be relieved"), where do you consider IOCipher to be at
present?

Thanks!
