No zones in FCS?
Hi all,
Like most other people here I'm eagerly awaiting the FCS (hopefully!) release tomorrow (on the 31st). However while looking through some of the Sun blogs I spotted this -
"You will note that Zones and Janus are not yet in the release. There are still a few bits and pieces to iron out. As an enterprise class operating environment, we are not prepared to release anything until we are happy with it. Expect to see these in early updates."

Now whilst I agree that Sun shouldn't release anything until their happy with it will I be taking a "backwards step" going from b72 to FCS? Waiting for FCS is one of the reasons I've held back quite a bit of development, so to hear that Zones won't "make the cut" is very disappointing.
Can anyone else confirm/deny that zones will be in FCS? (Yes I realise I could wait a day and find out, but it'd be nice to be able to read something "official" before actually going through the installation process to find out.

It was a typo, Zones will be there, ZFS won't be there until one of the update releases.
