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.

reiserfs v. 3.6 have principial "bugs ?" that cannot be solved w/o disk format change, so Hans stop to develop 3.6 and create reiser4. Sure, all reiser4 bashers knows this fact. So why to continue spreading lie about "Hans laziness to support and patching reiser 3.6". It fixed, continued and supported. In reiser4.
