In my case I wanted a virtual file system that was event based, e.g. when file was received it would fire event with data (name plus byte array). I got the events/notification working fine...just didn't have time to implement the VFS. For now I just read the byes from the native file system and then delete the file. I hope to get back to that...but got directed to a different project for the moment. IMHO, it seems a VFS would have enough general interest...it would be great to be part of the FTPServer project...either in the mainline code...or in an example project.
