Joe,

I think what you would want to do is see how active the fork of
OpenSolaris: Illumos

http://www.illumos.org/
and
http://openindiana.org/

Following the code updates may let you know how active the core of
Nexenta will be. I mean, we obviously know the deb wrapping goodness
will have updates.

Additionally, I have heard the fuse bits for zfs are getting better. It
may even allow snapshots at this time, but don't quote me.
