ZFS is gaining interested in FreeBSD land so I guess the source for it must be available...

Not just FreeBSD.. It's somewhat popular on Linux too (http://zfsonlinux.org/). On both it's pretty darn stable. Due to its license, though, it cannot be put into the Linux kernel.
I think Linux and FreeBSD have both gone down different paths and have slightly different ZFS features (although I think the pools + filesystems can be set to a level that maintains compatibility). Sources for both are available though.

I've been thinking about it. I can no reason whatsoever to not work with a journaling file system in moving forward. It is the only path that makes sense for a long-term system.
I'll be looking at JFS in moving forward.

In ES/1 I should be able to implement a JFS file system. I'll be looking to do that after I complete my FAT12/FAT16 file system.
