Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-1298:
--------------------------------------
Christophe, do you think it would be better to include the groups also in the
current UserDatabase you are implementing now rather than later? I am sure we
will need to add groups pretty soon.
Minor : It would be nice to display the permissions in the form 'rwxr-xr-w'
rather than '755' in webui and 'fs -ls'. Also the fact that permissions are
currently set for directory only is more of an implementation detail. We could
show the inherited permissions for list of files also.

> I'm working on adding a permissions model to hadoop's DFS. The first step is
> this change, which associates user info with files. Following this I'll
> assoicate permissions info, then block methods based on that user info, then
> authorization of the user info.
> So, right now i've implemented adding user info to files. I'm looking for
> feedback before I clean this up and make it offical.
> I wasn't sure what release, i'm working off trunk.
