What Stratis learned from ZFS, Btrfs, and Linux Volume Manager

Hi John,

Filesystems are resized automatically. RAID and mirroring won't be supported in version 1.0, much less conversion, so can't say when/if that'll be supported. We haven't done much performance analysis yet. What sort of failures? We do plan on supporting integrity by using the dm-integrity target, this is also part of the post-1.0 plan.

But yeah. there are a lot of questions to be answered, even if right now the answer is not yet known! I'll look at starting a FAQ page.
