Lengthy discussion going on about this subject at Slashdot:

Title: OpenSUSE 13.2 To Use Btrfs By Default
Author: Soulskill
Link: http://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/Fp9Ay99bFGU/story01.htm

An anonymous reader writes "OpenSUSE has shared features coming to their 13.2
release in November. The big feature is using Btrfs by default instead of
EXT4. OpenSUSE is committed to Btrfs and, surprisingly, they are the first
major Linux distribution to use it by default. But then again, they were also
big ReiserFS fans. Other planned OpenSUSE 13.2 features are Wayland 1.4, KDE
Frameworks 5, and a new Qt5 front-end to YaST."

I was going to say "good discussion ..." but the quality of the comments has
slipped even since I F'ed Beta back in February.
