Hi Jonathan,

I'm not sure about specific patches I'm afraid - the most common theme on 
the btrfs mailing list seems to be 'try the latest version'.

With this in mind, perhaps sync to the upcoming 3.6 kernel (not sure how easy 
or otherwise this is), or perhaps align to what Oracle and Suse have 
done for Enterprise Support:

https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Getting_started#Enterprise_distributions_with_btrfs_support

However, I get a 'gut 
feel' (so no stats to back this up) that the amount of interest in btrfs 
will lead to a lot of instalations trying it, so shipping the most 
mature version as is practical may be sensible as warnings around 
backups etc are frequently ignored.  The 3.2 version being shipped isn't a big 
issue for me personally as it's working fine just now, so happy to be guided by 
the Debian maintainers in terms of cost/benefit.

Also, there was some mention of an upcoming update on btrfs-progs on the 
btrfs mailing list too - another candidate to sync perhaps?

Thanks.
