I doubt the community would want it even if it was open sourced. As an
open source project, what would probably make more sense is a similar
caching mechanism built into the kernel, somewhere between the
filesystem cache and user-space. That way any you could use it with any
application that benefits from the kind of large cache that Infinite
Cache provides.
