If it's the hot-spare and auto-replace feature, I've expressed my stance in http://marc.info/?l=linux-btrfs&m=146252575330106, there hasn't been any change. IMO the hot-spare feature makes most sense with the raid56, which is stuck where it is, so we need to get it working first. Lack of reply usually means lack of time (which I would not spend on flaming but evaluation and review). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
