Maybe there is consensus that adding ZFS is a legal risk. There is no consensus on the amount of risk. Are there two camps, - one unwilling to impose any such risk on users (i.e. close as won’t-fix <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/45692> and remove traces of ZFS) - one “Worse is better” camp that likes to move fast and break things? I think of <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2021-09/msg00220.html>, even though Katherine Cox-Buday did not get involved here at all. Then who decides? I don’t actually care about ZFS myself, but there should be a decision because I think current badly supported ZFS makes people here unhappy. Regards, Florian
