JFS2 was/is in AIX. It wasn't developed there, but it's provided for
OS/2, AIX and Linux. At least according to Wikipedia (and I
have no reason to doubt them).
In the AIX operating system, there
exist two generations of JFS filesystem that are called JFS (JFS1) and JFS2
respectively.[1][2] In the other operating systems, such as OS/2 and Linux, only
the second generation exists and is called simply JFS.
Note
that the SCO Group was also well aware of this. Their (extremely silly, IMO)
argument was that because JFS2 had been included in AIX at
all, the terms of the SYSV license meant that they had a say in what IBM
did with the code. (In other words, a contractual dispute.)
This is one
of the reasons that the license clarification published in $echo magazine
became such a big deal. It made it pretty clear that AT&T wasn't trying to
claim any sort of control over modifications like
this.
