Here are the links:

Also, SuSE announced that they will be switching to ext3 in their next
SLES releases:

Red Hat, major player in Enterprise game, is supporting ext* for years.
reiserfs is not enabled by default.
So, IMHO, since less people will be using reiser, I would not use that
in my installations.

Also ext2 is preferred on many installations, especially when people
want to avoid journals.
If i was a betting man, I would guess that (currently being developed)
ext4 will win the filesystem popularity contest at some point in the
future, and will probably dominate enterprise linux installations.
