    But doesn't the principal BTRFS developer work for Oracle?

    Me too, however having opportunity to choose between btrfs and zfs is better then be 'forced' to use btrfs only.

    Let me guess; it will be freely available and downloadable at no cost and will full source code, right?

    Here's one vote against EVER including ANY code you develop in the kernel.
    I never said too difficult to comprehend! Anyways, nothing against the alternatives. Sorry for using that language for FUSE. I too agree that was a mistake on my part to write that .

    I take back my words for FUSE @droidhacker Hope that cools you down a bit !

    Am not here to fight with people or downsize anyone. Am just here to let people know that we have put an effort in porting ZFS to linux, and now are almost on the verge of releasing the beta code.

    Thanks

    @michael. Sincere apologies Mike. I know you have been waiting to get your hands on linux. Sorry to keep you waiting till sep 15th. We were to hand over the code, but want to run proper tests on it, some fixes and do some rigorous testing at our end before we start handing it over to customers. I hope you understand, dont want to hand over a code half checked for bugs.

    Please bear with us for the next two weeks. We can schedule a demo though if you want to have a look.

    Regards,
    Darshin

    Am really sorry for this. Just a quick update, the ZFS to Linux demo is available right now. The code would be available on and after sep 15th.

    The following are the details of the beta release scheduled for 15th sep:

    Zpool Version: 18

    Solaris Build: b121

    Linux distros supported ( 64 bit Only) : Fedora 12 (rpms), RHEL 6 beta 2 (rpms), Ubuntu 10.04 (make from source)

    Sorry for the delay by a couple of weeks, we are just into the mode of fine tuning the code before handing it over for testing at your end.
    I hope you guys give/gave it a nice beating with ztest and other stress-tests to ensure it's somewhat stable and works

    anyways: take your time & good work !
