Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-3250:
------------------------------------------------

- Literally, the word "create" does not mean or include append operation.

- It seems to me that permission, overwrite, replication and blockSize do not 
make sense in append.  This is the current create header.
{code}
  public abstract FSDataOutputStream create(Path f,
      FsPermission permission,
      boolean overwrite,
      int bufferSize,
      short replication,
      long blockSize,
      Progressable progress) throws IOException;
{code}




> Extend FileSystem API to allow appending to files
