Agreed.

Whilst <http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/source/list> shows not many  
recent changes, let's not forget that experimental support for Snow  
Leopard was extraordinarily early -- December 2008.

Distinguishing between 64-bit processing, bitness of the kernel, Snow  
Leopard Server and Snow Leopard:

* what's the rush to have MacFUSE (*user* space) working with a 64-bit  
kernel in a
   _server_ version of the OS that's not intended for end users?

I don't devalue any community work in progress, but I wonder whether  
development of MacFUSE should focus, currently, on issues that affect  
the more common version of 10.6.

(Issues that affect MacFUSE on 10.6 Server in 64-bit kernel mode may  
take a sideline. Assuming that it will be some time before there exist  
enough everyday drivers etc. to make a 64-bit kernel practical for the  
masses using ordinary Snow Leopard.)

Is my view of things too simplistic?
