I'm in the process of creating a file browser-like tool in JavaFX, and my
original intent was to use VFS as the underlying file system abstraction.
 After looking at a lot of the features in Java 7 and 8 (like
DirectoryStreams, parallelStreams, and lambdas) I'm now having second
thoughts.  So I'd be really interested to learn what the "future directions
of VFS" will be.  Is the goal to create an adapter layer between the NIO
file system, and VFS, and perhaps gradually remove that layer and replace
it with direct adapters for each of the file systems?  Or is there some
commitment from the jCIFS, jackrabbit, and other teams to provide NIO
adapters directly? Is there a wiki page, or a thread I should look at? Is
there a time frame when this will happen? Unfortunately, I won't be able to
make it to ApacheCon.

Cheers,

Mark
