Shrug. Each FS has features the others don't, and it doesn't make much sense to limit our options because some day soon someone else might be kind enough to make their well known FS stable in linux, and get it accepted into the kernel. Both XFS and JFS have good teams of developers, and the end result is that all the linux filesystems are going to benefit from the competition.
