I think so, and SUSE are effectively maintaining ReiserFS 3 nowadays,
Hans Reiser isn't interested in it anymore, he just wants to push
Reiser4.

You can safely assume that this is "never" (given that Reiser4 is a
separate filesystem). If (huge "if"!) Reiser4 does dominate the world in
a few years that might get used, but ReiserFS 3 is pretty much just kept
alive by SUSE now, and is unlikely to see any major further development,
not the least since Hans Reiser always actively tries to bad-mouth
changes going into it, since he wants people to focus on Reiser4.

And is actively developed and improved on.
