Sure but where's the fun in that? :).

Seriously though, when I'm not on RHEL duty most of my time has been
spent on stability vs. adding features, and honestly there aren't a
lot of "OMFG this shit is broken" complaints, it's more of "hey when I
do this thing that is specific to my work load, BTRFS does X wrong."
At this point what is left is the normal day to day users using this
thing and breaking it in ways that we as developers have not been able
to break it using it the way we use it and test it the way we test it.
 I think that if I could get a large base to test for F15 that we
could squash most/all of the problems that crop up from that to be in
great shape for default in F16.  Thanks,

Josef
