What is the purpose of using this in production? I thought people just ssh into Linux if you need it to just work. For my own purposes I used to use an ext3 driver on Win7, never failed on me, just switched to Linux.



Some people want to access the same data volume from Linux and Windows (see the person dual-booting upthread).


You can also just pass the partition to a VM and access the VM storage however you want. I would trust that a lot more than this to be honest. Nothing against this project in particular, I just don't find the idea of using a filesystem driver on Windows to access a filesystem that Windows doesn't normally support. I don't really trust Windows to handle that well :P
