How much is the code going to help with incompatible licenses? I suppose Linux distros could use the userland side of ZFS, and from what I know this is a big deal because ZFS is as much a volume manager as a filesystem, but what about the kernel side? CDDL code can't be distributed with the kernel, so everything would have to be rewritten.
I don't see Linux supporting ZFS without help from Sun, which being the copyright holder could contribute acceptably licensed code. This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
