By the time it goes final and becomes the default FS, replacing HFS+, probably within a couple of years, we'll see if they make the same two design decisions which cause the kinds of problems being discussed here (case-insensitivity, and ubiquitous FS-level UTF-8 normalization). I've done a dumb search in the ZFS source code for "CASE" and see that it can in theory support case-insensitivity as an optional feature. The potential is there for Apple to use this. I personally hope that they don't, because as has already been pointed out, these little tricks tend to make life more difficult for users rather than helping them (the day I have two files in the same directory called "Märchen" and want to specify one of them on the command line I'll worry about that when I come to it). http://fuzzy.wordpress.com/2007/06/09/zfsandfilesystemoptions/ Cheers, Wincent - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
