On: ZFS lands in Debian contrib

[l1ambda]

Great news. So this means Ubuntu, Debian and the new Redox OS now have ZFS. I would love to see it officially supported in Fedora too.

[rwmj → l1ambda]

There is a DKMS package similar to the Debian one which requires just a single command to install: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Fedora

However it is unlikely that Fedora will ship ZFS unless the license changes or is clarified by Oracle. Unlike Canonical, Red Hat is a US company making serious amounts of money ($2bn revenue last financial year).

[voidfunc → rwmj]

I imagine it ends up in EPEL? Or is EPEL Red Hat controlled?
