Star ZFS Ported to FreeBSD
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Tue 22nd Aug 2006 16:55 UTC, submitted by eschrock
FreeBSD Following in the footsteps of DTrace, another major OpenSolaris feature is making its way to FreeBSD. FreeBSD developer Pawel Dawidek has announced a port of ZFS, Sun's next generation filesystem. In just 10 days of work, Pawel already has ZFS filesystems mounted, with the ability to create files and navigate directories.

...this does lend a little more credibility to the rumor that Apple might port ZFS and make use of it.

not off topic at all, (at least to me)

I think ZFS, porting to freeBSD and to OSX would be really great. just think, one guy in 10 days got it working at a basic level. imagine what a team of guys could do?

Yes! That is exactly what I was thinking! Of course, one really code engineer beats a team of so-so engineers...

I would be very happy with being able to use the same filesystem on both my FreeBSD and OS-X machines...
