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.
