In fact, I saw, actual work started on this task about a month ago. So it's not just planned, it's really in the works. Now we're talking open source timelines here, which means, "you'll get it when it's ready," and nobody knows when that will be. As mentioned elsewhere in this thread, there are some other major features that have been "ready in 2 weeks" for like 2 years now... YMMV. But to me personally, zfs send is one of the HUGEST winning characteristics, so I'm really eager for btrfs send to exist... That's one of the biggest missing characteristics that make btrfs seriously less attractive than ZFS for me right now. But I'll sure tell you, building a time machine server (mac) using the latest netatalk on ubuntu beta is sure a HECK of a lot easier than doing the same thing on solaris right now. ;-) Not to mention, I'm happy to run ubuntu on dell servers where solaris was formerly a crash & burn. So I'm using btrfs anywhere that linux is required, and using ZFS anywhere that is OS agnostic (or solaris advantaged) and I just need a filesystem. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
