Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-6704:
----------------------------------------
# This is a new feature, so the patch should be against SVN_HEAD, not an older
version of Hadoop.
# The newer version of Hadoop is moving to some new FS APIs; you might want to
consider working with them.
# HDFS-708 has discussed the issue of stress testing filesystems; this new
filesystem back end could be a use case, if you are willing to participate.
# One issue with all third party filesystems is regression testing: they don't
get enough of it. If there is any way to make this easier \-and that could
include you running a local version of Hudson to grab SVN_HEAD of Hadoop and
testing MR jobs over your filestore, then end users will be grateful.
# Involvement in testing forthcoming releases is equally important, as is
ongoing maintenance. It is really hard for an OSS project to test/maintain code
that works with other peoples infrastructure, and motivation can be trouble
too, so you have to be willing to stay involved -otherwise the code just
gradually stops working.

> Parascale has developed an org.apache.hadoop.fs implementation that allows
