I mentioned several times already that in case that Oracle does ot like an open 
development model that allows input to ZFS from anywhere, then we need a change
in the way that ZFS features are implemented and documented.

It is no longer sufficient to have a ZFS or zpool version number but we need 
version tags with pairs of vendor/feature.

As long as this does not happen, ZFS is not ready for closed development inside 
Oracle.
