Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-574:
-------------------------------------

> I've started work 

Great!  Jim Kellerman (jim at powerset dot com)  has also privately expressed 
interest in implementing this.  Perhaps you can collaborate?

> which package should this go in? org.hadoop.s3fs or org.hadoop.fs.s3, or 
> something else?

Let's go with org.apache.hadoop.fs.s3.  Someday we should probably move dfs 
into a subpackage of fs...

Are you going to attack HADOOP-571 too, or is anyone else working on that?  
Otherwise it will be hard to configure a cluster whose default filesystem is 
S3, or to submit a MapReduce job whose input or output use a non-default 
filesystem.


> want FileSystem implementation for Amazon S3

> An S3-based Hadoop FileSystem would make a great addition to Hadoop.

> This is related to HADOOP-571, which would make Hadoop's FileSystem 
> considerably easier to extend.
