Greetings,                I am interested in using the VFS library for one of 
my projects, as it has almost everything I need, but i have some questions on 
it though.
My use case is as follows:* For the local file system, I use DESCRIPT.ION files 
to store attributes of files and directories, so I would need to override some 
methods of DefaultFileInfo() , mainly all the attribute related functions. How 
can I set my own FileInfo provider? I did not find any API in the interfaces to 
do this, maybe, i missed something.
* The same is true of FileContent, how can I set my own FileContentInfo 
provider in FileContent ? I would probably use a feature of JDK 1.6 (the 
FileTypeMap class) to override the default implementation.

Finally an unrelated question, why you do not use the DataSource interface in 
FileObject available in JDK 1.6, is it because of Android compatibility issues?
Thanks in advance for your help,Carl
