We are not working on a BSD system here, even though one is buried
underneath. We are working on a HFS+ filesystem that explicitly
supports resource forks.

Wrong. You may be using HFS+, but certainly not everyone else is using
it.

99.9% of Mac users (your market) are using it. Anybody here format their HD as UFS?

I didn't think so.

Not to belabor a point, but the case sensitivity issue is the the biggest reason we would not use a "XServe" as a web server. I'd love to tell users, that their "case retaining" files have overwritten themselves because the file system is actually "case insensitive." Would anyone understand that?

I know this is not the place, but then I'm not sure where is.
