I would be very careful about using it unless you understand you could
have data loss or system crashes.

There is an excellent write up about it in this weeks lwn.net

http://lwn.net/Articles/99408/

Next Thursday (9th September 2004) it will become free for
non-subscribers but the jist of it is that since the kernel hackers have
only just been able to see the code they are finding problems with how
it works.

I would wait a little be longer before taking the plunge.  However I
don't want to kill anyone's pioneering spirit so just read up and go
ahead if it all sounds OK to you.
