[Opensim-users] Archives - sim on demand

[Ralf Haifisch]

Heho,

@Robert:  yes, in know
http://n2.nabble.com/What-are-some-solutions-for-oar-file-sharing--td2252065
.html , reading the list for some months.

I thought (even with regards to Stefan) - sim on demand is a nice step, with
reads to "trusting" archives, or even if you fully trust but don´t want to
run are gion for load oar or swap them back and furth...  

It enables you to have some performant regions as needed for oar review and
(for me) was the missing puzzle piece in the oar-swapping.

Others may prefer to prepare/review the oar localy.


As soon as I find time, I will prepare the first reagions as well   :-)

And: I like the sha-256 idea !


Cheers,
Ralf

Combining this with the binary asset weeding discussion, the proliferating
use of exporting/importing oar is probably yet another reason to try to get
compacting techniques in place asap.


As I understand it, we will come to a strange situation with either having
to trust the archives asset keys, or re-create every asset with a new key -
which will probably explode if people start sending oars around. (which I
hope, as it's definitively a revolution in the making, on par with the
hypergrid concept)

 

There's a Sha-256 calculation method in .Net that we could use to identify
'duplicate candidates' continously, and after a succesful full compare, we
could just delete one of them and change the binary pointers.
