No.
ReiserFS always chage its binary representation on disk. ReiserFS always miss rock-stable quota, fsck and conversion tools. So supporting ReiserFS could be a pain for RH. Thus - no ReiserFS by default.
RH (Now Fedora) guy but I've wondered about this matter. I went through the RHCE course and in it they mentioned the ReiserFS as being in development. Well, we all know that ReiserFS is FAR from being in development... it's BEEN out...
Be out and be stable is two different things. When author says "it's stable" it is not the same like 1.000.000 peoples (testers) says "it's stable".
I underestand what Hans Reiser wish but I need more than his wishes.
So I was wondering if someone could objectively answer this questions. I am really not trying to make anyone uncomfortable, just curious. :-)
