I am more interested in when ext4 will coming online. (Some features

What is in ext4 that is so interesting?
AFAICS, the max filesystem size and the nanosecond timestamping are the
only marginally interesting features.
Besides, I doubt if ext4 will never make into openSUSE:
- lack of customer requests.

- doesn't really meet any needs that cannot be handled by other
 file systems in the distro
- Novell QA is not testing ext4 nor are any of Novells partners.

- If you run into a problem with ext4, there is no support available from the openSUSE kernel maintainers.

Oy! Where did you learn how to be sarcastic, eh? :-D

Ciao.
