My previous assumption was that reiserfs would be an additional supported fs, and not a replacement for extfs. Given the widespread use of ext file system, I would guess that removing the extfs support would produce a bunch of complaints from users.
I would like to have Reiserfs support in DSL and prefer it hands down to ext2/3 especially on old computers, but not at the expense of eliminating extfs support.
I am pleasantly surprised at the unexpectedly small size of the arch linux reiser package. However, my guess is that the 1MB size is compressed size and that is too much space when you only have a 50MB compressed CDROM iso image to work with.
