Since this vote didn't pass and fuse-dfs is being maintained [1] I've filed HDFS-3451 to move fuse-dfs out of contrib into the native build. (This won't introduce a new build dependency for people who don't want it, like Snappy it won't compile by default unless you have the fuse headers).
1. I've committed the following changes so far in 2012: HDFS-860 fuse-dfs truncate behavior causes issues with scp HDFS-3396 FUSE build fails on Ubuntu 12.04 HDFS-420 Fuse-dfs should cache fs handles HDFS-2696 Fix the fuse-dfs build HDFS-780 Revive TestFuseDFS Thanks, Eli On Thu, Feb 10, 2011 at 6:58 PM, Nigel Daley <nda...@mac.com> wrote: > I think the PMC should abandon the fuse-dfs HDFS contrib component.
