Steve,

Thank you for your prompt response.

> I've commented on what's needed;

I see your comment:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8602
Case test needs to use toLower() with a locale; the
equalsIgnoreCase()fails in countries where "I".toLower()
!= "i"

I am somewhat puzzled how locale and case sensitivity relate to
FTPFileSystem, but I will take a look and do my best to figure it out.

> it just didn't have anyone advocating it. Now that you've taken up that
role...

I am a newbie and will probably need some hand-holding.
But I will view this simple issue as "training wheels" for me to learn more
about the process for contributing.


Michael
