It's still alpha-quality code, but it's probably worth keeping an
eye on Btrfs[1] ("Better File System") from Oracle. It looks very
promising so far. The Btrfs developers are also working well with the
linux kernel developers, which is always nice to see. Even if btrfs
doesn't make it to the bigtime itself, I would expect to see most if
not all of its features turn up in ext4 at some point as well.
