That's a pretty cop-out answer. Considering the the version of ZFS in 7.x has significant issues and the ZFS patches havn't shown any propensity to affect non-ZFS systems when ZFS is not running or loaded, the benefit of importing the new code seems to outweigh any caution you might feel. I can understand an answer such as "not in 7.1, but immediately after" ... given the standards we apply to release branches ... but a vague "when no bugs seem to appear" applies much less to a system like ZFS (still in flux) than, say, the new USB stack. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
