Insofar as Oracle is concerned with their own version of RHEL.... BTRFS
is production ready, but they haven't certified their other main
products to use it!  So as far as I'm concerned, either it isn't
"really" production ready or they should get onto certifying their other
products to give the "production ready" status some real world worth.

I've subscribed to [email protected] mailing list, just
to have an idea as to what is going on .... patches keep on coming and
other issues crop up too often as well.  I'm not ready to use BTRFS on
anything yet myself.  In time I do hope it turns out to be a better
option than ZFS.  I wish that there weren't any licensing issues with
ZFS code living in the Linux kernel because I love ZFS on Solaris and I
don't want to use ZFS via FUSE -- nor do I want to use BSD kernel (which
is another possibility with Debian).

Cheers
