Is 5.3 and ext4 going to be safe? I have seen a couple reports of data loss using ext4? Has this already been fixed?
Like Jim said, not ext4's fault.
What does the list recommend? ext3/ ext4?
Ext4 (actually ext4dev) in 5.3 will be a preview and not meant for general use. So most people should probably stay with ext3.

Thought maybe today we would start seeing 5.3 showing up... Looking forward to it.
