ntfsprogs-ntfs3 is unmaintained!

Since ntfsprogs-ntfs3 is unmaintained, do you guys suggest any replacement for its purpose?
Any useful suggestion is appreciated.

Never heard of it. Perhaps you could describe what functionality you want an alternative to provide.

Mod note: Moving to AUR Issues.

I think he specifically talks about a package that provides the ntfs utils, but not the fuse driver. For whatever reason. (Maybe to cut through some dependencies?)
ntfs-3g is still maintained and the alternative to it is the in tree ntfs3 module.
