- Beyond, the license debate, one reason to look at the GNU/Hurd
implementation is for sharing code so both project can benefit.
- R. Dawe, pointed that you might one to start a new package GNU nfsd;
It is a good point, as NFS V2,3 and even WebNFS(Defunct ?) can
be complex, a big beast that deserve its own package.
- Take for example the implementation of Ping(Sergey) or Ifconfig(Marcus), they
share
a big common layer and the dependent code is pushed down to specific files.
Sure that NFS can share a lot of independent code.
- Are you sure there is not good implementation of NFS out there ? IIRC
GNU/Linux has some very good implementation.
- In any case, it will be your choice 8-), whether you choose UNFS, Hurd NFS,
some
BSD implementation etc ... But if you want to make it a "GNU" package, you
will
have to resolve the licensing issue and it can be difficult to get this right
at the beginning 8-).
- Why NFS ? why do you want to start an NFS package? Learning experience?
Have you look at WebNFS? NFS-V3? is there new revision of NFS out there ?
Again what's wrong with the known implementations ?
