Lawrence Livermore's native ZFS for Linux is nearing completion. There ar=
e=20
still performance issues, but they are apparently hoping for a Jan 2011=20
release. <http://zfsonlinux.org/>.

Note that I just read about this on slashdot=20
<http://linux.slashdot.org/story/10/11/22/1433246/Running-ZFS-Natively-On=
-Linux-Slower-Than-Btrfs>,=20
which along with the cruft its discussions are wont to have, touches on=20
licensing issues. OpenAFS gets a mention (not by me).

Cheers, Stephen
