ext3 is way more portable... even under *BSDs .. "NTFS... de facto standard"? ... from M$ lolz

Ext3 sucks under BSD's, a lot of them can't write to the volume, doesn't matter either EXT2, 3, or 4.

UDF as I stated works fine with udfclient under OpenBSD and it could be "mountable" even with base tools (read /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/udfclient in order to correctly format it with udfclient).

I copied files back and forth on USB drives written in under OpenBSD and the volumes mounted like magic under Linux. And the performance is not bad at all.

I will give a try to UDF -esp if has comparable write speeds with ext3 , but for sure I had no issues to _write_ on an external ext3 with NetBSD + FreeBSD (my last desktop OS, before move to Debian Sid)
