Where is the current state of the development of ext4 in Fedora 17?
Best wishes

Well, since btrfs is now the newest fad, I suspect there
will be no new ext4 development at all (but as was mentioned
in another reply, ext4 no longer has any grub compatibility
problems, with grub2 at least).

I'm not sure what you mean by ext4 development but I would be really surprised if the kernel community stopped maintaining ext4 and the utilities for it. BTRFS still needs a fsck that can fix up the filesystem. Until that happens you're still going to be seeing ext4 as the main filesystem. I know there is a feature to move to a BTRFS default install FS but I still haven't heard word about the fsck utility yet.
