There is why.

Yep, I noticed that too. I'm still not comfortable with the state of ext4. I've been following the changelogs for a good while and there's always lots of ext4 patches to fix things that sound as if they'd be quite hazardous to your data.

I'll stick with 2.6.27.y and JFS for the time being I think.

I find it very amusing that right as I was testing out slack13 + ext4 for the first time the first thing I did was recompile 2.6.32.1 =) and I was sitting there pining over what kernel version to use and I just happened to have the right one fall in my lap... IMO I'm impressed with the speed of ext4 + 2.6.32.1 I like it...
