   The project is a great  idea.
    I can help mentor this project.
    I am cc'ing Alan Bateman the spec lead for JSR 203.


What timeframe did you have in mind?
Alan B will be doing a presentation of JSR203 at Javaone this June. It would be great if we could have some sort of
a prototype to validate JSR203 APIs against Hadoop by that time.

There has been some discussion (HADOOP-4952, HADOOP-3518) on how the
HDFS file system can be exposed via the SPI in the new (new) NIO.2
specification, JSR 203.

I'd like to pitch the idea of doing that as a Google Summer of Code
(now accepting applications) project. What do you think about this?
Are there any developers that would want to mentor this effort?

I am interested in doing this project (as a student) if the community
thinks that it is a good idea.
