We have an implementation that was in the test tree for a year, went
through 3 test events that is being ported.  I don't think it will
take more than a week or so to get enough of it in.  Unless it gets
upstream, it is not going to get much wider review than from the
original group (Pavel, Jeremy etc).  Note that all code is marked as
"broken" and the majority in distinct c files - this is not that
different than pNFS, which only recently got usable in mainline but
was checked in many releases back.
