Hi,
Yes, Tuxera...Anonymous, July 8, 2010 2:09 PM:<br /><br />Hi,<br /><br />Yes, Tuxera NTFS for Mac (all versions to this date) supports the non-server versions of Mac OS X 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 (with the special exception that 10.6 users must use the stock 32/64-bit hybrid kernel... if you don't know what this means then you don't need to worry, it will work).<br />It will also support most versions of Mac OS X Server, although with 10.6 server there are some reservations.<br /><br />But don't just take my word for it, try it out for yourself. The software works in trial mode for 15 days, more than enough time for you to decide whether or not to purchase the software.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />- ErikErikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18326970669258666618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156578562014006371.post-25104443405928262492010-07-08T14:09:13.966+02:002010-07-08T14:09:13.966+02:00Hi,

Many many apps rely on it; it could either become a cornerstone of your business or a great open-source project. The other option could be to incorporate the components from MacFUSE that you need right into NTFS-3G, and that way you can stay on top of the libFUSE updates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156578562014006371.post-52888033487930765432010-06-18T08:13:21.377+02:002010-06-18T08:13:21.377+02:00Anonymous, June 18, 2010 6:28 AM:

NTFS-3G will also be updated.<br /><br />Regarding MacFUSE, we are in the process of finding a solution to the stagnant development state. Hopefully by next month we have something to announce in that respect.<br /><br />The plan is to release 2010.6-RC and then 2010.7 next month.

On the other hand, your rival (Paragon) has superior speeds with their v8.<br />http://www.codykonior.com/tuxera-ntfs-vs-paragon-ntfs-mac-benchmarks/<br /><br />Furthermore, it appears as if Paragon is updated much more frequently, whereas you (Tuxera) seem to be overtaxed and behind on development. The fact that the OSX NTFS-3G is sitting at a January release still, when we're in June, is testament enough to this. I realize that you're trying to work it back towards the main branch, but the lack of updates to both Tuxera and the free-ware NTFS-3G is a bit disheartening for a consumer, especially considering the progress of a free, open-source community.<br /><br />Your last response was May 24th, what's the status now? Also, as another perk, you should have an auto-update or check update option in the prefpane.<br /><br />Also, as an aside, I've heard that work on MacFuse has stopped-- I can't find any recent developments except for an external-lasting beta. Any news on that?
