My patch is following. Sorry. But I'm still worrying about this myself.

It seems my skill and knowledge for the issue are too small. My time
for fat was already small before this, and honestly, I don't think I can
maintain/support all issues well.

So, finally, I thought the best for us which I can is to find new
maintainer for fat.

Could you help to find the new maintainer?

Thanks.

When this option is enabled this will refuse to create new files with
long names. Accessing existing files with long names will continue to
work.

File names to be created must conform to the 8.3 format. Mixed case is
not allowed in either the prefix or the suffix.
