Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-4750:
-----------------------------------

Looking at some of the patches that have been posted, it appears that this 
project is entirely new/separate code from the rest of Hadoop. What is the 
purpose of putting it in Hadoop proper rather than proposing it as a separate 
project (eg in the incubator)? Bundling it with Hadoop has the downside that it 
makes our releases even bigger, whereas the general feeling of late has been 
that we should try to keep things out of 'core' (eg we removed a bunch of 
former contrib projects)

> Access HDFS is usually done through HDFS Client or webHDFS. Lack of seamless 
> integration with client’s file system makes it difficult for users and 
> impossible for some applications to access HDFS. NFS interface support is one 
> way for HDFS to have such easy integration.
> This JIRA is to track the NFS protocol support for accessing HDFS. With HDFS 
> client, webHDFS and the NFS interface, HDFS will be easier to access and be 
> able support more applications and use cases. 
> We will upload the design document and the initial implementation.
