Log:
Update ZFS "todo" to say it's being done. Perhaps there is more than
people
can help pjd with here, but they need to contact him first. We need to
decide if this item should still be on the TODO list.
See my comments to the commit of joel. I really like the zombie-entries idea
for the list, but if nobody else likes it too I don't try to push it further
now.
BTW, I followed up with Pawel on this one to ask about whether there were any
obvious project tasks to be done on ZFS, and the answer was no.
A general point: in a a few weeks, we're going to have hundreds of students
looking at the ideas page looking for concrete project ideas to propose for
summer of code. We should avoid putting things on the ideas page if we don't
want them done. We should make it clear for each item that we think is worth
exploring but aren't sure will be committed that this is the case. This will
avoid unhappiness later when we say "Yeah, it was on the ideas list, but
really, we don't want that". I'm fine with having high level categories of
ideas with contacts, rather than having every idea there be specific and
concrete, but let's be very careful not to ask for things we don't want.
