Remember the good ol' friends, the one from Redmond and Novel

If there is a patent question associated with the latest ntfs-3g sources, MS must declare its patent rights and inform the offending party/parties to be enforceable. I just look at the source codes, and all seem to be released under GNU Public License (GPL). So I assumed nothing there is non-free or it will violate the spirit of GPL.

I think as hardware/software virtualization improved and optimized, ntfs-3g will be less significant, if not already.

Existing version in repo: ntfs-3g.x86_64 2:1.0-1.fc7
fill a bug (RFE) against ntfs-3g in bugzilla

OK, I will do it upon completion of my test.
