If we don't have a released offline fsck by Alpha, which IIRC is the beginning of August we're not even going to make the switch. We aren't aiming for "hopefully stable", we're aiming for actually stable and reasonably safe. If we don't meet certain basic requirements no switch will be made and everything will carry on as normal. I'm not trying to shove Btrfs down peoples throats. The last thing I want is to switch over to Btrfs before it's fully ready for everybody to be using it, which is why there are a bunch of requirements that need to be met before the switch is actually met.
