Ok, now we have a webpage for the macfuse http://macfuse.github.com/.
http://macfuse.org/ should be updated shortly as well.

if you want to add anything to the site - send patches for
https://github.com/macfuse/macfuse.github.com

It looks like we decided to go with tuxera changes, it is great!

A new official release? As the current HEAD is the same as tuxera repo
the new release will be the same as 2.1.9.dmg  The reason I want it is
to force macports to move to it. So macports either abandon their
changes or move it upstream. This way we remove yet another source of
confusion.

A few mid-term tasks:
* update fuse to 2.8.5. Currently macfuse depends on horribly outdated
3 yo libfuse release.
* create a fork of libfuse and sshfs repositories. Currently diffs
between upstream and macfuse changes is stored as a patch.
https://github.com/macfuse/macfuse/tree/master/core/10.5/libfuse It is
ugly. Especially if you want to look diff over diff. Instead we should
have separate repos with 2 branches - upstream and macfuse. When you
make a change to libfuse repo - you update the diff as well. Or even
better - to remove *.patch files at all and just use git submodules.
