Thank you for bringing the discussion forward..
Have your cake...
This is a term used by the Brits on Brexit in Europe.
While BS it basically says look for a way to get something new from
controversial demands.
As you say a project must have a focus on certain points be it stability
or compatibility and yes stability has priority but in the end stability
is nothing without compatibility when there are not enough users to
justify the whole effort beside a single company use case. This is not
different to the end of Sun that lost focus on users. Dying virtuously
is not a serious option for any OSS project.
From a user view, I do not see how the current Illumos follows Open-ZFS
development or see that important new Open-ZFS features find their way
to Illumos in time, so it cannot be more of the same.
As I am not a Illumos dev this is my personal outside view. There may be
other solutions from inside view.
