Sun CEO: ZFS will be the Leopard filesystem
Another purported benefit of ZFS is the elimination of various administration and maintenance routines required by other filesystems. For instance, the fsck command never has to be run, even if the system is shut down in an unclean fashion -- the creators claim that ZFS has never lost data integrity or leaked a single block after thousands of forced violent crashes.
According to Schwartz, Apple will announce that it is adopting ZFS during next week's WWDC (Worldwide Developer Conference) in San Francisco.

I just like to get at my own and everyone else's files without requiring the latest "New-Improved, 94% fat free" electric letter opener, now ONLY available from Apple (under licence from Sun).
More usefully: How about an announcement that Apple will universally adopt all open-source file formats?
