features.

                 Key: HADOOP-2543
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2543
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.15.1
            Reporter: Sanjay Radia
             Fix For: 0.16.0


In moving to 0.16,  which will support permissions, a mode of no-permission 
checking has been proposed to allow smooth transition to using the new 
permissions feature.
The idea is that at first 0.16 will be used for a period of time with 
permission checking off. 
Later after the admin has changed ownership and permissions of various files, 
the permission checking can be turned off.

This Jira defines what the semantics are of the no-permission-checking mode.
