Thankfully CK only left the mailing lists -- not kernel hacking entirely.
BFS is a godsend for those of us who don't have a 16-core Xeon in our netbook or phone and want to actually use it. And it'll *never* be in mainline because the maintainers are so arrogant.
Same caveat applies for the (unrelated) BFQ: the maintainer's demand there was along the lines of "submit this as a broken up series of patches that mutates CFQ into BFQ one step at a time or we won't consider it at all". That's like asking for btrfs as a series of diffs against xfs.
