SuSE, openSUSE OpenSUSE 10.2 will no longer user ReiserFS as its default filesystem. "We've been using ReiserFS as our default installation file system for the last 6-7 years now, and it's served us well in that time. Unfortunately, there are a number of problems with it, some purely technical, some more related to maintenance. I'll outline a few of the larger issues and offer my solution as a conclusion."

... Hans Reiser has nothing to do with it.
Reiserfs v3 is broken and will never be fixed (Either due to show-stopper technical problems or due to bad politics - its doesn't really matter much, once you think about it).
Reiser v4 is years from being sea-worthy.

End Game.
