There are other file systems included in SUSE Linux Enterprise 10
besides ReiserFS, ext3, XFS and OCFS2. Are they supported?
The other file systems are included for convenience and are not directly
supported by Novell. Other vendors may offer support for these systems
(for example, IBM for the JFS file system). In addition, there are
third-party addon file systems (such as PolyServe or Symantec–Veritas),
which are supported by their respective vendors on SUSE Linux Enterprise.

That's also why JFS is not our default file system.
About Ext3 vs. ReiserFS vs. XFS vs. ... : Every year, there repeating
discussions over and over again, discussing pros and cons, both
externally and internally. Every single file system seems to be good for
something else, it's not easy to pick one.
This situation can be compared to buying company many cars at once.
There is always somebody who is not satisfied but it's important to
satisfy the majority with the best quality for the lowest price :) ;)

FYI, that article is somewhat outdated -
"The Reiser File System is the default file system in SUSE Linux
distributions."
When did the default openSUSE filesystem change to ext3? 10.0 ?
Of course, those articles have been written for SLE 10. SLE 10 is the
