Do n’t have your breath for the ZFS filesystem to come out in any futureSnow Leopardupdates . A content yesterday on the project ’s home page very intelligibly acknowledges that development has kibosh totally .
A message on MacOS Forge telegraphically states ,
The ZFS projection has been discontinued . The posting list and repository will also be removed before long .

There have been multiple explanation as towhy Apple dropped ZFS supportin Snow Leopard , and now there ’s more speculation to add into the premix . This time the story endure that when Oracle bought Sun , Oracle did n’t need continue development on ZFS because they already had their own filesystem ( BTRFS ) in the oven .

ZFS was also apparently face patent of invention suits at the prison term . It all sounds like a complicated legal and political good deal , which is in all likelihood why Apple just drop it .

Whatever the genuine reason behind ZFS ’ sudden tumble from grace may be , it ’s disappointing that we ’ll have to wait longer for a honest filesystem advance inOS X. [ AppleInsider ]
