You are right, the license simply addressed contract agreements and more 
or less the copyrights. It is possible that ntfs-3g's current 
implementation under user level, rather than at the kernel level, and 
assuming it was developed under the clean environment, merit the idea as 
distinct and beyond the scope of ntfs patent that has been granted.
