** Description changed: - The SD Association announced in 2009 a new standard for high-capacity SD memory cards: SDXC - and the file system for this standard will be Microsoft's exFAT. Linux (either the kernel or via FUSE) therefore needs to support this file system before it becomes common for portable devices and other uses. + The SD Association announced in 2009 a new standard for high-capacity SD memory cards: SDXC - and the file system for this standard will be Microsoft's exFAT. Further, recent MS Windows versions are defaulting to exFAT when formatting removable drives. Linux (either the kernel or via FUSE) therefore needs to support this file system before it becomes common for portable devices and other uses. (Yes, this is an upstream feature request, but I'm a Kubuntu user and this is where I can track progress for my own distro)
