FYI, I've created pull request for a Daffodil NiFi processor: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/3130
This is basically the same as what has been available at NCSA [1], but changes the organization from edu.illinois.daffodil to org.apache.nifi, and integrates it into the NiFi directory structure. - Steve [1] https://opensource.ncsa.illinois.edu/bitbucket/projects/DFDL/repos/daffodil-nifi/browse
