There is a fuse implmentation, however as mentioned, it is rather slow. It's main targets were reading ZFS volumes on Linux and OSX.

It is still CDDL with all the (dis)advantages that brings; depending on your perspective - nothing has changed in that respect. I.e it's purely a branding relaunch from what I can see. -Joel patric conant wrote: >http://www.open-zfs.org/wiki/Announcement > >It supposed to be open-er. I didn't
