Welcome. :)

At least I am happy with the amount of information flowing in these
channels.  All commits are automatically send to the list, for those
with time and interest to review, and all bug reports and discussions
are sent there too.  But most important, everyone in the group seem to
welcome contributions from interested and skilled people.  The team is
short on man-power, as is most teams of course, but everyone is doing as
good as we can.

My main problem is personal, I lack the required spare time to
contribute technically, and so far has mostly helped by guiding the
package through the NEW queue and commiting a few translations. :)

Aha.  I misunderstood what to look for in git.   I do not know anything
about that file, unfortunately. :)

Title:
  ZFS initramfs mounts dataset explicitly set not to be mounted, causing
  boot process to fail

Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Per https://github.com/zfsonlinux/pkg-zfs/issues/221: the initramfs
  zfs script might overrule canmount and mountpoint options for a
  dataset, causing other mount operations and with them the boot process
  to fail.

  Experienced this with Ubuntu Zesty. Xenial seems to ship with a
  different zfs script for the initrd.

  Work around when it happens: unmount the dataset that should not be
  mounted, and exit the initramfs rescue prompt to resume booting.
