I've had some issues when testing a 64-bit compiled version of the kext, 
built from the current SVN state. When booting my MacBook Pro / Snow 
Leopard 64-bit mode with the kext in place, I lose the keyboard and mouse.
The current SVN state is of course not in a release state, but rather in 
a 'development' state. I tried to compile the code as it looked by the 
time of 2.0.3/2 was released, but I couldn't get that kext to load in 
Snow Leopard 64-bit at all.

We'll just have to work together as a community then, to fix any Snow 
Leopard issues and bring MacFUSE up to date.
This could lead to a community-maintained fork of MacFUSE. I don't think 
forking the project is a very appealing idea... it'll just lead to 
confusion, but if the main project is stagnant I guess we have no choice.

I wish Amit would take some time to look at this, as he's the one with 
good knowledge about the code and any issues that might exist with 
64-bit Snow Leopard. At least he could let someone else in on the 
project to take on leadership if he's not able to find time for MacFUSE 
anymore.
