One example is EVMS (device-mapper) snapshots. Not stable in 2.6, yet related to XFS.

It would be nice if the XFS team could maintain patches for newer 2.4 kernels of official releases (ie 1.3.1). This would ease the tension somewhat.

My whole point is "2.6 is almost out of the door and its so much better". Its much faster, much cleaner.


2.6.10 is NOT almost out the door, and the fact is a great many are
not going to trust it till then.
