Philipp Brügger commented on VFS-266:
-------------------------------------

This is feature from 2009 and seems to be quite outdated. It wasn't release for VFS-2.0 and is now on the never ending roadmap for VFS-2.1. Please remove this thicket from the 2.1 version and recheck again for a future release.

> I'm implementing a VFS plug-in that implements a distributed, writeable file system for Google App Engine (GAE) Java (see gaevfs.appspot.com for more info). In order for this to work properly, I need to create a distributed FilesCache implementation using the memcache API provided by GAE. However, memcache requires that both keys and values must be serializable. Therefore, to complete my implementation, I need to make AbstractFileName and AbstractFileObject serializable (because my implementation classes inherit from these).
