Hi,
It seems to me that the proposal[1] for a snapshot-aware defrag has long
been abandoned. Since most peoples badly need this feature I tought about
how to possibly speed up the achievement of this goal.
I know of several bounty-based kickstarting platforms, among them the best
ones are probably bountysource.com[2] and freedomsponsors.org[3].
With both platforms everyone interested can place a bounty on the issue and
if/when there will be someone interested to implement it he will get the
bounty.
I created an issue on both of them just to show how the platform will
handle it.
Since btrfs is a small community, before actually placing bounties and
sponsoring it I would like to know if there is someone against this
development model or someone interested in implementing a feature because
of a bounty.
Bests,
Niccolò
