Hey Niall,

Thanks for looking into that. But frankly speaking I am not a big fan of that for a couple of reasons.

That would make it the 3rd FAM implementation in the commons codebase. There already is commons-jci-fam, the commons-vfs fam and then we would also have the commons-io fam.

With commons-jci-fam we already have a well tested and released version as own artifact. So I am not really seeing the need for making the general commons-io bigger while this is a more specific need that IMO maybe justifies it's own artifact. I would be more than happy to accept patches and improvements within the JCI codebase - that's for sure!

Mario and I talked about merging the FAM implementations (although I fear that's not easy). We even considered a commons-fam project ...it's just that the codebase is a little small on its own.

Maybe it would make more sense to do these changes in commons-jci-fam first and then move that to a new commons-fam?

WDYT? Niall? Mario?

cheers

I have created an issue ticket to add the functionality (with some
refactoring) provided by the fam module in JCI to Commons IO:

If its accepted by Commons IO I hope it can be used by JCI as well -
rather than duplicating.

Comment welcome

Niall
