Subject: Kickstarting snapshot-aware defrag?
Date: Tue, 03 Oct 2017 15:32:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ec17105e-5602-4afd-96d5-77b871051184@linuxsystems.it> (raw)

Hi,
It seems to me that the proposal[1] for a snapshot-aware defrag has long 
been abandoned. Since most peoples badly need this feature I tought about 
how to possibly speed up the achievement of this goal.

I know of several bounty-based kickstarting platforms, among them the best 
ones are probably bountysource.com[2] and freedomsponsors.org[3].
With both platforms everyone interested can place a bounty on the issue and 
if/when there will be someone interested to implement it he will get the 
bounty.
I created an issue on both of them just to show how the platform will 
handle it.

Since btrfs is a small community, before actually placing bounties and 
sponsoring it I would like to know if there is someone against this 
development model or someone interested in implementing a feature because 
of a bounty.

Bests,
Niccolò
