Just a note: I asked Uwe to submit the package for RPM Fusion (after he added it to the wishlist), as back then (a week or two ago) it afaics looked highly unlikely that zfs-fuse will make it into Fedora.

Also note that Uwe mentioned the Fedora review request in his RPM Fusion bugzilla review request.

For the record, this is also submitted to Fedora. My original odds for
fuse-zfs making it into Fedora were originally "poor", but I recently
upgraded them to "good" after talking to Simon Phipps (Sun Open Source Chief
Officer). However this may still take a while to get past the Red Hat Legal
block...
RPM Fusion has a policy of not duplicating Fedora packages and, as you
said, a package review is already pending in Fedora.

Which is also from Uwe ;-)

Therefore you should ask for a review only if the package will be
rejected from RH Legal.

I totally disagree; we had situations where it took months to get the legal status in Fedora resolved. RPM Fusion for such timeframes imho is a acceptable home for a package. But sure, if it looks like this will be resolved quicker (like it does now) then it makes no sense to get it into RPM FUsion.
