As I recall, Josef Bacik mentioned that he'd be pushing for Btrfs becoming the default in Fedora 23
 
. At this point, I'm personally convinced that it is certainly ready and doable for F23.

Well actually he said his "plan" was to push for F23.  I've been using btrfs raid 6 for several years now and have been lucky I haven't encountered any issues - but if you subscribe to the mailing list you'll see others haven't been quite as lucky.  I'm sure he'll propose it once he believes it is ready.  When proposing a default change it is prudent to be cautious. In the meantime it's there to use for early adopters; and the more people who test the faster issues will be identified and corrected.  Just be sure you've taken the proper precautions.... ;-)

​Certainly, but with none of the features in Btrfs actually emitting scary "experimental" warnings anymore, and even all features working in btrfs RAID 5/6 now, I think we should really start pushing it to more people. Or at least develop some kind of test plan to prove the "worthiness" of using it as default. We must have something, ne?
