Hi,

A couple of questions.

1. Does btrfs currently have anything like raid 5 or 6?

2. One guy on my LUG's mailing list is really excited about the
potential for setting redundancy on a per-file basis.
I.e. /home/eric/criticalfile gets mirrored across all of the drives in
the filesystem but /home/eric/temporaryfile gets striped. I'm skeptical.
Is it a good idea to allow people/programs to do this?

Cheers,
Eric
