I know that this was asked approximately 1 year ago; however, I was
wondering if there had been any movement on it. Specifically, getting
FreeBSD to recognize the 'exFAT' format. It is becoming a very common
format for use on removable drives.
It's patented and it probably comes with a multi-page aggrement and a
price.
Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT#Licensing) says:
Companies can integrate exFAT into a specific group of consumer devices,
including cameras, camcorders and digital photo frames for a flat fee.
Mobile phones, PCs and networks have a different volume pricing model.
The above sound pretty much inappropriate for an open source operating
system like FreeBSD.
