Tweedie has published a number of papers on Linux, including Design and Implementation of the Second Extended Filesystem in 1994,[5] Journaling the Linux ext2fs Filesystem in 1998,[6] and Planned Extensions to the Linux Ext2/Ext3 Filesystem in 2002.[7]
Tweedie is also a frequent speaker on the subject of Linux kernel development at technical conferences. Amongst others, he has given talks on Linux kernel development at the 1997 and 1998
