Of course, we are probably still years away from usable client implementations.
I actually doubt that. There's enough interest in NFSv4 that it's likely to take off pretty quickly. Netapp has already done a preliminary implementation (according a paper I found somewhere, written by one of their engineers). Connectathon 2001 was just last weekend, but I don't know what the results of it were...
As to RFC 3010, you'll note the work place of the authors? That might give some clue as to Netapp's plans. And anyway, it's still "standards track" which means it could still change.
