ZFS has a very free license. This was the reason, why it could be ported to the |
| 21 |
BSDs. So why do you believe there is a "license hurdle"? |

Also note: btrfs now is three years old. ZFS was started aprox. 10 years ago. |

For this reason, btrfs is expected to need another 7 years to readh the level |
| 25 |
of stability currently seen with ZFS. |
