Hello all,
Some of us working on Btrfs in Fedora have decided to start a SIG to
foster both better coordination, and also provide an easier way for
others in the community to get in touch.
Initial members (sorted by FAS):
- Boris Burkov (borisb)
- Chris Murphy (chrismurphy)
- Davide Cavalca (dcavalca)
- Josef Bacik (josef)
- Neal Gompa (ngompa)
- Omar Sandoval (osandov)
- Michel Lind (salimma)
As you can see from the most recent Fedora changes, we've been
defaulting to Btrfs for a substantial proportion of Fedora variants for
quite a while - this fall will marks four years of Btrfs as the default
desktop filesystem, and three years as the default filesystem on cloud
images!
Timeline:
- Fedora 33: Workstation and other desktop variants default to Btrfs
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/BtrfsByDefault
- Fedora 34: Btrfs transparent compression
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/BtrfsTransparentCompression
- Fedora 35: Fedora Cloud defaults to Btrfs
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/FedoraCloudBtrfsByDefault
We definitely have more Btrfs enablement to pursue in the future -
bootable snapshots being one, transparent encryption another (pending
it making it into the upstream kernel) - but the proposed SIG intends
to get started on more practical items:
- having a Matrix presence (https://matrix.to/#/#btrfs:fedora.im, might
also be on fedoraproject.org once we are official)
- having a mailing list and Discourse presence
- having a group in FAS so we can start maintaining packages
collectively
There is an existing general Btrfs wiki,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Btrfs - for the SIG we will have a
dedicated page as well, but will make sure both link to each other for
visibility.
So the SIG will have its own mailing list?
Thanks for all the work!
Phil.
