That's also why JFS is not our default file system.

I have absolutely no issue with that - I'm not really too interested in
what openSUSE has as the _default_ filesystem - that is a question for
openSUSE product management. My primary concern is for openSUSE to
maintain (semi-)support of JFS.

The key issue in this thread is what Gerald Pfeifer wrote:

"there is a reason why JFS is deprecated with current versions of SLES."

I would like Gerald to elaborate on that, especially since current
versions of openSUSE have JFS support.

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.

Completely agree. I happen to think the current choice of ext3 is fine,
but just not suitable for my purposes.
