It seems that there are other reasons for the Linux kernel folks for not

I certainly don't understand why they ignore it.
How can one have a "Storage and File Systems Workshop" in 2007 without ZFS dominating the agenda??

That "long fscks" should be a hot topic, given the state of the art, is just bizarre.

Reading through the topics in that article, I get a
real sense of NIH syndrome.

The presentation on the fsck problem in 2013 ... if
you're still using a filesystem in 2013 that requires
you to fsck then I reckon you deserve what you get!
That's 6 years away, surely even linux fs developers
can come up with something better in that time.

They already did, in Reiser 3 & 4, which makes it even stranger.
