The old mailing lists on oss.oracle.com are no longer active but are available at the lore.kernel.org archive. The original gmane.org archives do include them too but might be available only through the NNTP gateway.

What information to provide when asking a support question

When reporting errors or asking for support always supply the output of the following commands:

  uname -a
  btrfs --version
  btrfs fi show
  btrfs fi df /home # Replace /home with the mount point of your btrfs-filesystem 
  dmesg > dmesg.log

A lot of debug information can be retrieved from dmesg. If the relevant log information is very large, supply the output as an attachment in the mail instead of in the message body (though mind the restrictions above).
