This post on this list mentions that Andrea Arcangeli is including XFS in
his patch tree for testing purposes.
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-xfs&m=101857274727754&w=2
ie his latest kernel pre release:
ftp://ftp.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.4/2.4.19pre6aa1/
Perhaps working with him and other kernel developers to get it included by
Linus would be more productive. I'm sure the fact that is is being included
by every major distro besides Redhat isn't being lost on anyone and that it
is making acceptable progress.
Getting Redhat to package it into Skipjack would be a real coup but it
doesn't look promising.
