Since you're a kernel guy, do you happen to know what the status of btrfs is likely to be in 12.1
This kernel guy only knows what is going on in wireless, but you got that info from GregKH, who is much more a kernel cosmopolitan than I.
I just did some testing with a month old Tumbleweed 2.6.38 kernel and btrfs has locked in mount in my early testing, so that doesn't look so good, but 2.6.39 and 3.0.0 could be much better.
Many patches are too invasive to be back ported to a stable release. For that reason, you should see improvements with 2.6.39 and 3.0 (note 2 digit representation).
btw: what is the name of the post 3.0.0 kernel going to be? 3.0.1?
As you have been told, 3.0.1 will be the equivalent of 2.6.39.1, i.e. the first update to the stable release of 3.0, and 3.1 will be the next one after 3.0. Of course, the holder of the Linux trademark is free to change his mind at any time.
