Fine by me! I just wanted to make absolutely sure to preserve what
was already out there. I don't make any claims as to actually running
the fork or anything like that. :-)

"NetApp's legal attack against Sun's open-source ZFS solution which is
freely available in the marketplace is a clear indication that NetApp
considers Sun technology a threat and is a direct attack on the
open-source community," Sun said in a statement. "Sun indemnifies its
customers and stands behind the innovations we deliver to the marketplace."
"NetApp has no plans to pursue litigation against those who are using
ZFS open source for educational purposes, research or other means that
do not compete with NetApp, said Dave Hitz, NetApp founder and executive
vice president.
And despite its lawsuit against Sun, NetApp has no intention of
asserting its claims against its customers or Sun's customers, Hitz noted."
So, at the very least, continued open source development doesn't seem to
be threatened.

Okay, you got your github url mixed up, but I figured it out. I
updated my github wiki page to point to Dustin's repository, the
mailing list, and the issue tracker.
http://wiki.github.com/peaceful/zfs-mac
Let me know what needs to be added/removed/changed from that page.
