What is the latest on RAID-5/6 support for BTRFS. RAID-Z has its issues (saying this as the triple- and double-parity author), but it's been stable.

As far as Ive heard it's still pretty iffy. Since you were involved with the zfs side of things what are your thoughts on the upcoming zfs draid bits? I don't have specific need for them myself but they look really attractive for building a new pool to replace my aging drives.

Unfortunately I've been completely out of the loop on the draid stuff.
