Sanjay Radia commented on HDFS-2316:
------------------------------------
Differences between the patch and Hoop:
* Hoop uses PUT for append and POST for create and mkdirs. Nicholas uses PUT
for all three operations
* Parameter names:
** Hoop uses op for all operations while Nicholas uses getOp, putOp, etc.
** Hoop uses "data" for reading a file while Nicholas uses "open".
** Hoop uses setowner while Nicholas use SET_OWNER.
* Default values: Nicholas follows default values used in HDFS but Hoop does
not.
* Permission: Nicholas use octal but Hoop use -rwxrwxrwx.

> In HDFS-2284, we propose to have webhdfs for providing a complete FileSystem
