Subject: A little confused about what remains to make a stable release
Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2010 14:27:39 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTi=q4bKVGfD-QoF68NecL4e4d5dfcvMrgv5NHtb3@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello List,

I have been tracking the development of btrfs for some time, as the
built-in support for snapshotting would be of great convenience for
relational database use cases. I have been crawling the wiki
(especially the FAQ), but I still don't have a clear sense of "what's
left" *besides* the need for a 'fsck' utility that can be called
absolutely vital.

That, and testing and bug reports.

>From the materials I've been able to find, it's hard for me to get a
sense of how one could assist the project towards being recommended
for general use; do the denizens of this list has a sense of what
those things might be? (Or a link?)
