Comment(by isis):
Right. The only thing left for this deliverable now is to finish the
design of the Backend, which we hadn't entirely agreed upon. During our
meeting in Firenze, the following concerns were raised:
* HTTP is not secure, and the wiki page does not make it clear that
'HTTP' here refers
to the protocol, which will, of course, offer SSL as a security
mechanism.
* HTTP is 'dirty', ie, is it not efficient, it's compression is not
the greatest, it does
not support deltas or diffs, and it is generally not what one uses
to move files around
from one computer to another.
* Should we instead use rsync (or duplicati or some other variant) and
only use HTTPS/O as
as a fallback? Rsync seems to solve pretty much all the problems
we've considered,
including resume support, verifiability, security, efficiency,
compression, and
portability.
ioerror, hellais: Can we find time soon to discuss this soon, either here,
email, or IRC, so that we can resolve this and be finished?
