I think it's great to get an SMB implementation in the Twisted
org, but why would we even consider adding something like this to
the main Twisted project?
The advantage of twisted itself is cross-protocol abstractions such as
cred. Of course you don't have to be in the repo to use them, but in
practice developers need the discipline of a single project to
maintain consistency, otherwise the human tendency to reinvent wheels
is too strong
Apropos we have two APIs for exporting filesystems which are broadly
similar: SFTP in conch and FTP itself, SMB is about to be a third,
ideally we should have one or have them descend from one another. It's
slightly harder than it sounds as SMB is a file-access, as opposed to
file-transfer, protocol and supports some extra features such as locking.
