Re: [PATCH] enable trash usage on NTFS partitions

[Yann Rouillard <yann pleiades fr eu org>]

Doesn't look so weird to me.
Why is it more natural to do trashing on vfat partition ?

If NTFS trash shouldn't be allowed, the other problem is that nautilus 
doesn't take it into account and currently trash files on NTFS.
But that's a nautilus/gnomevfs issue, I don't know if nautilus/gvfs also 
has this bug.

Is it EOL for gnome-vfs ?
