ZFS under FUSE/Linux is a Google SoC 2006 project.

The general consensus among the Linux and BSD projects (that I've
seen) is that the CDDL license Sun has released it under is too
restrictive to allow it to be brought in as a native filesystem, but
it may be usable as-is with some kind of API translation layer (FUSE,
LKM wrapper, etc).
