“Updated ZFS. This is the first release with ZFS usable for daily use, but there is no support for booting from ZFS nor using ZFS as root filesystem yet”

Grateful for this

ZFS boot is being worked on at this moment[0] - hopefully it bears fruit. I don’t know, if this were successful, if it would be backported to 9.

OpenBSD will probably never use ZFS; they like clean code that they can understand and control as completely as possible, and ZFS is a monster of a codebase that replaces whole chunks of the system with its own.
