Comment on ZFS on Linux repo renamed to openzfs/ZFS

Comments

This is a much needed rebranding from zfsonlinux.

Can't tell if that is sincere or snarky. So, you win?

But, in all seriousness, why did this need to happen, and what is its significance, if any? Should I be trying to interpret it, or is it just "here's the new name, just so you know it's the same project when you hear aboit it"?

And how about zstd, anyway?

I don't get it. Is file system branding that important?

Branding and marketing is the most important thing in the universe for an open source project.
