Hello, there are some bits and pieces here in the archive and the wiki. But my idea why I brought up the topic of VFS-future birds of feather was actually to present the current state (whats in VFS whats in Java) and then discuss what can be done (and that hopefully sparks some enthusiams and finds volunteers :)
I think right now nobody is volunteering/planning to do anything. And the next step for VFS is certainly a release refresh of the current trunk. But theoretically both is possible: consume FileSystems as a provider or implement an adapter which makes a VFS filesystem(manager) to provide the FileSystem SPI.
