Hi vorlon, I'm using ntfs-3g for ages, my corporate does too. Well, in fact, thousand of people uses ntfs-3g every days and nobody ever reported data corruption. As the software was still in experimental state when I packaged it, I added a debconf screen to warns users, however I thinks it's stupid to drop such a famous and usefull package (consider nobody reported a real bug on ntfs-3g since it's into the archive...).
