Excerpts from BenoÃt ThiÃbault's message of 2011-01-20 16:06:21 -0500: > Hi everyone, > > I am very interested in the features provided by btrfs. > > I know it is still under active development and thus do not consider using it yet "in production", but the Wikipedia page describing btrfs contains a very frightening sentence: > "Edward Shiskin, one of the Reiser4 developers now working for Redhat, got asked in Q2/2010 to look more detailled into Btrfs and judged that it has a broken design. This design may lead in some cases to out of space problems." > > I have read the linked mail exchange in the mailing list but it is very technical and I am not quite sure I understood everything. Could you please tell me if the problem has been fixed since? There was a bug fixed as part of that discussion, and I think I also better described the way the tree balancing works to Edward. > > Is there a planned date for the final release of btrfs? A final release? We'll keep improving things for a long time. The biggest missing feature today is btrfsck, which I'm working on full time right now. -chris -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
