I'm pleased to announce sixth release of the distributed storage
subsystem, which allows to form a storage on top of remote and local
nodes, which in turn can be exported to another storage as a node to
form tree-like storages.
I went back and re-read last month's discussion and I'm not seeing any
reason why we shouldn't start thinking about merging this.
How close is it to that stage? A peek at your development blog indicates
that things are still changing at a moderate rate?
I completed storage layer development itself, the only remaining todo item
is to implement new redundancy algorithm, but I did not see major demand
on that, so it will stay for now with low priority.
I will use DST as a transport layer for distributed filesystem, and
probably that will require additional features, I have no clean design so
far, but right now I have nothing in the pipe to commit to DST.
