Eli Collins commented on HDFS-2631:
-----------------------------------
bq. Not sure I understand this comment and why it was hard to follow. When
nothing is provided in these fields is it not intended for trunk?
It's not clear, often having it unset means people don't know what to set it
to, and trunk issues are set to 3.0. For this jira the affects version was set
to 3.0 but w/o a target version, then the affects version was unset, then the
fix version was set to 2.0.3-alpha when it was committed, then the fix version
was changed 3.0 today, so it was hard to see where it was going.

> We should port the implementation of fuse-dfs to use the webhdfs protocol.
> This has a number of benefits:
> * Compatibility - allows a single fuse client to work across server versions
> * Works with both WebHDFS and Hoop since they are protocol compatible
> * Removes the overhead related to libhdfs (forking a jvm)
> * Makes it easier to support features like security
