“Tuxera Inc., the leading provider of Windows-compatible file
systems for Android, Linux, Mac and other platforms, announced
today the release of a complete, GPL-compliant FAT32 replacement
package for Android and Linux. The package combines Tuxera’s
high-performance, proprietary FAT, FAT32, exFAT and NTFS drivers
into easy-to-deploy modules that work with all Android and Linux
kernel versions.

“Unlike other file system vendors Tuxera works closely together
with operating system manufacturers to make sure IP issues and
legal compliance is taken care of. Tuxera for example became the
first file system vendor to license exFAT patents and source code
from Microsoft in 2009.”
