Even so, I certainly hope that btrfs end up at least as reliable and feature-complete as ZFS, if ZFS itself cannot be merged into Linux. That's a big ask, but now that ZFS' IP has been imported into Oracle, perhaps a lot of patent and copyright issues can be smoothed over, giving btrfs a huge advantage relative to what it had before the acquisition. -- Dmitri Nikulin Centre for Synchrotron Science Monash University Victoria 3800, Australia -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
