Glory glory hallelujah! Next time my datastore tosses its cookies what should I do? What information do you need? I'd like to help however possible. > - Someone figures out how Tavin's datastore works and debugs it Not a bad idea.

The question should be this: Is Tavin's design good and worth salvaging or is it poorly designed and bound to be full of problems forever? > Failing that, we could implement a single-file datastore, but attempt > to avoid the complexity of the current implementation. Isn't a single file datastore quite hard to debug? I'm always a fan of not reinventing the wheel so it would seem wise to let native filesystems do as much as possible. -- Tracy Reed http://www.ultraviolet.org
