A Google Summer of Code progress update on ReactOS's NTFS driver. The author describes work on file overwriting, read-related bug fixes, resident-to-non-resident file migration, SetEndOfFile support, registry-controlled write support, and limited file creation.

## Source excerpt

Hello everyone! My name is Trevor Thompson. I'm a computer science major at Blue Ridge Community College living in Virginia. This is my second time participating in Google Summer of Code. I'm very happy to be working on ReactOS' NTFS driver again! Recap When I started last year, ReactOS could read files from an NTFS volume, but had no write support whatsoever. After GSoC last year, the driver in my branch could overwrite existing files.
