I was under the impression the append thing was worked out as of 09? I
guess I was way off

Hi Madhu,

Tks for the pointer. Even after reading the section on 0.21/22/23=20
written by Tsz-Wo, I still remain in the fog...

Will HDFS-265 (and its mentioned Jiras) provide a solution for append=20
(whatever the release it will be)?

Another way of asking is: "Are there today other Jiras than the ones=20
mentioned on HDFS-265 to take into consideration to have working hadoop=20
append?".

Tks, Eric
