I think the author made a typo (or was trying to be sarcastic and missed the sarcasm quotes around "well maintained").
I've used all NTFS drivers extensively in Linux, and whilst ntfs3 is maintained with somewhat regular commits, they are often pretty sparse and haven't addressed some of the long-standing issues (eg Bonnie++ and some other disk benchmark tools fail) - the biggest issue being the lack of a decent fsck tool in the entire ecosystem (ntfsfix in the ntfsprogs pkg isn't a real fsck).
Personally I'd still be wary of doing any fsck from this new project for a good wee while and would recommend using the real CHKDSK from a Windows or a WinPE install instead. Of course, the best option is to avoid using NTFS altogether and use a well-maintained native Linux fs.
