don't simmer, they smolder)..

Fires can do both. A simmering fire is one that has just
started, but hasn't caught yet, hasn't reached its full strength.

A smoldering fire is one that is chugging along at low
strength - "no flame, but with lots of smoke" is how the
dictionary puts it. Usually the last stage of a fire, when the
oxygen has been used up

It appears Apple has found a way to release ZFS as part of
Snow Leopard:

Hardly surprising. Mac OS X is based on FreeBSD, which is
BSD licensed. The CDDL is compatible with the BSD license
