--------------------------------------
Hi Roger,
on the commons-vfs jar dependencies, I see that the snapshot version of the
release we still are using has never been releases (since a lot of time now);
of course a dependency on a snapshot jar is not the best but I'm not against it
is it's the only solution. Note that in this case we could have problems if
using dependencies via Maven/Gradle.
Roger, what do you think on trying to ping commons-vfs people to see if there
is some update ?
> Add a pluggable file system architecture to FileBrowser so remote browsing

> Our application requires the ability to be able to browse (for instance) a
> Linux machine from the Windows desktop. For this I would like to add
> (somehow) a pluggable file system architecture so that I could (for instance)
> implement an FTP protocol underneath the FileBrowser so that I can browse
> through directories and files on something other than the local machine. We
> would also need to be able to type in a host name or TCP/IP address to start
> browsing the remote machine.
