Every single contributor, individually. Which won't happen. The real test of whether Sun were serious about ZFS being anywhere but Solaris is what they do to license it - they've patented everything they can, and made the code available only under licenses incompatible with other OS products. Their intent is quite clear, and quite sad. Compare it to what the old Sun company did with NFS, which is now a standard used everywhere. If Sun want ZFS to get used all over the place in free software then I'd have expected at the very least to see them throw out a copy of the code, docs and patent grant in a form that could be used, even if it came with no other assistance of any kind. Now would be a great time to do that, but I can't see it happening, instead they'll miss the boat just as microsoft did with Office XML (three years ago they'd have sailed it through ISO to the sound of fanfairs) Alan - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
