AFAIK, there's no official plan to do this. There are unofficial
projects which allow for ntfs writing but they are not offically
sanctioned.

Keep in mind that Windows NT 6 - code name vista - has the same 3.1
driver as in the current versions of NT but may be updated when they
eventually release the winFS subsystem.

I've heard decent things about NTFSMount...
