"OCFS2 1.6 RELEASE

OCFS2 1.6.3-1 and OCFS2 Tools 1.6.3-1 are the latest versions. The new
features available in this release include Extended Attributes, POSIX
ACLs, REFLINKs, Indexed Directories, Allocation Reservation, Metadata
Checksums and User/Group Quotas."

Looks like it's only available for "Unbreakable Linux" subscribers.
The development seems to be detached from mainline. :-(

Thanks,
