Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-2885:
---------------------------------------

I think that org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.* is better than 
org.apache.hadoop.fs.hdfs.*. However, I'm not adamant about it.

I do feel strongly about how this interacts with src directory splitting.

core:
   org.apache.hadoop.{io,conf,ipc,util,fs}

hdfs:
   org.apache.hadoop.hdfs (or fs.hdfs)

mapreduce:
   org.apache.hadoop.mapred

You can't put DistributedFileSystem and DFSClient in separate src directories 
without making a cyclic dependence and that is very bad. Therefore, I think 
they both need to be in the hdfs src tree. I think it is less confusing to have 
the src trees *not* overlap packages and therefore it would be better to have 
it in org.apache.hadoop.hdfs. I would even propose merging DFSClient and 
DistributeFileSystem into a single class...

The kfs and s3 could stay in core because they are very thin wrappers over 
their respective native file systems.

> This Jira proposes restructurign the package hadoop.dfs.
> 1. Move all server side and internal protocols (NN-DD etc) to 
> hadoop.dfs.server.*
> 2. Further breakdown of dfs.server.
> - dfs.server.namenode.*
> - dfs.server.datanode.*
> - dfs.server.balancer.*
> - dfs.server.common.* - stuff shared between the various servers
> - dfs.protocol.*  - internal protocol between DN, NN and Balancer etc.
> 3. Client interface:
> - hadoop.dfs.DistributedFileSystem.java
> - hadoop.dfs.ChecksumDistributedFileSystem.java
> - hadoop.dfs.HftpFilesystem.java
> - hadoop.dfs.protocol.* - the client side protocol
