Hi Andi

   We've had a few systems with it set up in the recent past (within the 
last 2 months), but they are our lab/demo/engineering systems for 
testing things, and they are out at customer sites right now running 
other tools.

   We have had, and continue to have testing going on with Ceph, BTRFS, 
NILFS2.  We actively use and support glusterfs, and have customers using 
Lustre, PVFS2, and others.  We have been looking at pohmelfs and others 
as potentially interesting.

   So, yes, we have used it for testing purposes, hence our interest in 
seeing it included.
