Hi Adam,
thank you for your precise statement. Be it "only" from an engineering
standpoint, this is the kind of argumentation which I was expecting (and hoping
for).
I'm not sure what would lead you to believe that there is fork between
the open source / OpenSolaris ZFS and what we have in Fishworks.
I've caught myself thinking along these lines a couple of weeks ago before the
fix for http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6604403 got
integrated. I had thought "they must have that fix in fishworks already", and I
am glad to see that it's been put back into snv_125.
At any rate, I think that the main selling point for 7xxxs is really the add on
s/w and I believe that making the core technology openly available will
strengthen the product rather than weakening it.
Thank you all for your great work,
Nils
