Netgear uses BTRFS as the filesystem in their refreshed ReadyNAS line.
They apparently use Oracle's linux distro so I assume they're relying on
them to do most of the heavy lifting as far as support BTRFS and
backporting goes since they're still on 3.0! They also have raid5/6
support so they are probably running BTRFS on top of md.
Yes, and any contributions you see coming from me so far, come from
NETGEAR. I've been using my gmail account because I can't make our
Thanks.

Updated :)
There are lots of contributors with the same small amout of patches
contributed and are not listed there. This is first time I hear about
Netgear being a contributor and it looks strange to see that name among
the major contributors.
If there's demand to list all the minor contributors, then let's add a
separate section, otherwise I'm going to remove the entry.
This is a sensitive PR topic that I'm normally avoiding, but in this
case I don't see the amount of contributions that would qualify to the
"hall of fame".
I'm always amazed when I count up the number of people and companies
sending code in. There really are too many to list, but every talk I
give includes a slide trying to give credit the community.
I'd be happy to see people add themselves to a "we're contributors"
section if they have been part of progs or kernel releases for a year.
Code review, patch submission, and helping users on the list/irc all count.
