Hello!
I'm just interested in when will btrfs filesystem be supported in archlinux in the official repository and on livecd ? It's available now from AUR some related packages, the stable releases can be seen here: http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Stable_releases
That main page of that wiki says ( http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page)
Btrfs is under heavy development, and is not suitable for any uses other than benchmarking and review. The Btrfs disk format is not yet finalized, but it will only be changed if a critical bug is found and no workarounds are possible.
I guess it will not appear until it is declared stable.

Yeah, Allan! You're right, I got this answer from #btrfs irc on freenode: "I seem to remember there was talk of a 1.0 release in late 2009 / early 2010 but I wouldn't take my word for it". Maybe the best situation with it now, if it takes place in AUR until it will be really stable. Thanks the feedback. Best Regards, Laszlo Papp
