[Zope] Local File System

I recently wrote a couple of hacks to make LocalFS work for me with Page Templates. Even though I put my patches up on Zope.org, I don't really feel like my quick hacks are worthy of the LocalFS name. Mainly I put it up because it worked for me in Zope 2.6 and I wanted to archive my work :) Local File System is a good product, but we still only have a stable version just under 2 years old which is not keeping up with Zope development. What do other people think about the development (or lack of) of this product? Do you see it as an important product? What are people's experiences with the CVS version 1.1?
