Ubuntu 19.10's ZFS TODO List Goes Public - A Lot To Of Work Left
![UBUNTU](/assets/categories/ubuntu.webp)
Among their ZFS action items for Ubuntu 19.10 are getting their GRUB menu integration changes upstream, initramfs changes around ZFS handling upstream, various bits around handling the different ZFS pools at boot time, working on the command-line experience around ZFS/Zsys management, automating snapshots, and testing/benchmarking to ensure everything works as expected. Also being worked on is transitioning to the new ZFS On Linux 0.8 code-base and the many features it brings.
Other ZFS Ubuntu items on their agenda but not necessarily for 19.10 include a GUI experience, release upgrade integration, Nautilus snapshot management from the file manager, backups integration, integration with APT, disk encryption integration, server integration, and more complex ZFS partitioning.
The current TODO list can be found here.
