During last month's openzfs call [0], one of the actions items that came up for discussion was "How do we all work together?" There are scenarios where issues on ZoL are still being investigated on Illumos. I don't know further details on this, sorry.
At first came the interesting question of "what is OpenZFS"? A spec? A reference implementation that everyone branches off? How do we exchange fixes and ideas and updates?
Another topic that came up was "What should the defaults for a zpool be?" this was for portable zpools.
Please note: the above were still open questions. We're going to have a few follow up calls to understand and ideate better.
Source: I was on the call, and I'm an Illumos community member.
