My review of
mst Defrag is still in the pipeline, and this short article is just to mention some interesting events this month:

The
PerfectDisk blog mentioned the
Great Defrag Shootout and said some complimentary things about my efforts, in an article called "
The good, the bad and the ugly". They seem to be a great bunch of guys, and I'm looking forward to see what they do with their next product.

Sourceforge.net got its first GPL defrag project. I don't think it's been around as long as
JkDefrag, and a first look at
UltraDefrag shows it to be very much a
version 1.0 product, but competition is good for everyone, including the commercial defrag products.

The "
Gui for Jeroen Kessels JKDefrag" from Emiel Wieldraaijer now includes PageDefrag support and some other useful things, including multi-language support.

I discovered yet another free defrag program, called
WinContig, not related to
Contig by SysInternals. This program can defrag files and folders, but I couldn't get it to do a whole drive, but I'll do a
review of this product as well. The review queue never seems to shorten.
