Hmmm. Tempting...

I'm about to go through the nightmare of moving my RedHat system onto a
Reiserfs. Which is kinda scary. On the one hand, I see Mandrake
supporting it out of the box now. (They are funding development.
Fnord...) On the other hand, I see stuff like
/usr/src/linux/fs/reiserfs/utils/README:

NOTE:   do not store data you take care about on reiserfs partition. It
        is quite unstable yet.  Please, report any weird behaviour ro
        reiser@idiom.com.

Anyone else made the leap of faith? ;)
