Fedora diskutiert über Btrfs als Standard-Dateisystem (Pro-Linux.de)
Vinzenz Vietzke forwarded[1] two links to discussion of Fedora 16's expected change to btrfs:
"Für Josef Bacik von Fedora ist das im Herbst kommende Fedora 16 eine mögliche Gelegenheit, auf Btrfs als Standard-Dateisystem umzustellen.

Schon seit Fedora 11 ist Btrfs verfügbar, in der kommenden Version Fedora 15 wird es auch ohne besondere Boot-Optionen zur Nutzung bereitstehen."
