Hello Jorgen
I admire and follow your work in the Open-ZFS forks for OSX and Windows
and at least it shows that it is possible to keep a fork up to date even
with limited resources, propable more than a more and more diverging ZFS
on Illumos. A quite stable and usable release seems not too far away and
a good future for Open-ZFS on OSX and Windows. Open-ZFS on Windows was
the reason for me to look at Open-ZFS more seriously and open my
Solaris/Illumos web-GUI for ZFS servers on any OS.
I suppose a few years ago it would have been even no problem to include
Illumos as 1st class citizen in Open-ZFS together with BSD and Linux.
Not sure if this is still an option (same to OSX and Windows integration
in Open-ZFS master) but a fork is not only bad as not every new bug is
included automatically and the work must be done despite, either prior
or after a commit.

I’m not really part of the main-thrust of this discussion, but allow me to make
a comment or two.
