I have a question, do the kotlinx-io contributors work on the library full time, or as a side project? Seems the library still has a lot of works to do.

It's an official project of kotlin team
But not every library has a dedicated developer full time, there is Kotlin Core Ecosystem team which I believe responsible for it, but they work on a lot of stuff

And priorities are moving all the time

kotlinx.io had a rocky road, it changed direction a couple of times, but looks that recently it was more a priority. Maybe there are some blockers though

I think the filesystem part need more detailed feature design.

The library is officially supported (I’m the main maintainer), the plan is to resume its development more actively.
FS-related part require more design and prototyping, I’ll focus on that in coming months.
@iseki , I saw you questions and activity on IO’s GH (thanks for doing that!), but I’m partly unavailable until the next week, this the delays.
