[packman] NTFS-3G

Hello,

  I've been wondering if you could add the ntfs-3g package to your repo (
http://www.ntfs-3g.org/)? It's a fairly new, but very powerfull, popular and
successful open source library for writing NTFS file systems from linux
(ported to many other platforms as well). The stable release appeared
yesterday (21. Feb). Why I ask this is because this is a packet type which
should be kept up to date and easily managed through update software (smart
for example)... I could as easily compile it and install it, but this way it
will become impossible to uninstall and/or maintain.

  If someone here is willing to build the rpms for openSuse 10.2 64bit (and
possible other releases) then please reply so that I'll know to be patient
and not just wait for something that's not going to happen.

Thx,
  Peter
