Doesn't seem so...

What is the next big date?

Debian 7 will probably be `frozen' within the next few months - if btrfsck is available in time, maybe they will be able to offer btrfs as a default root FS? If not, it could be another 2 years until Debian 8

One web site is quoting Red Hat with a 2013 release date: "RHEL 7 is two plus years out, which from an upstream perspective is pretty darn close," Ron Pacheco, Senior Director of Product Management at Red Hat told InternetNews.com " - hopefully the btrfsck release isn't going to be on that sort of timescale though?
