It's already there for Linux. It's just that you have to merge it yourself. RR: Some people have different opinions about what constitutes a good filesystem. One half goes with ext, the other with <CENSORED>, mainly because "it works" for them, has "proven to be stable enough", "<CENSORED> has not proven to be stable", or perhaps just out of fs beliefs/conviction. I myself would not 'want' either zfs or r4 at this time, and there's even an objective reason behind it.
