A few weeks ago, I had sent an email about the progress of HDFS federation development in HDFS-1052 branch. I am happy to announce that all the tasks related to this feature development is complete and it is ready to be integrated into trunk.
I have a merge patch attached to HDFS-1052 jira. All Hudson tests pass except for two test failures. We will fix these unit test failures in trunk, post merge. I plan on completing merge to trunk early next week. I would like to do this ASAP to avoid having to keep the patch up to date (which has been time consuming). This also avoids need for re-merging, due to SVN changes proposed by Nigel, scheduled late next week. Comments are welcome. Regards, Suresh
