Simply because it is "Linux Storage and File Systems Workshop".
You won't expects presentations on raiserfs at Open Solaris conference
and definitely you won't expect it to dominate conference.

And what they can do other than to ignore zfs? Right now Linux has
nothing even close to zfs.

Now many Linux people are just sys admins and they should be
interested in zfs. The question is if suvh conferences should be
mostly related to Linux when it comes to open source? I strongly
belive not. It's up to our community and to Sun to engage several
conferences and in a way to advocate about technologies like zfs,
dtrace, etc. Even if we're talking about small, local meetings.

Of course many people, especially from Linux crowd, will react
defensively when they will see Open Solaris topics on their
conferences, but hey - lets try to keep an open mind.
