Brian Foster commented on OODT-150:
-----------------------------------

ya, but what i've got in mind is a little more involved than what crawler1 had 
. . . more like an auto-detect system for checksumming . . . just register a 
checksummer to a mime-type or whatnot and the crawler would automatically 
determine the checksum for the file . . . i need the crawler stuff to be 
instant (milliseconds) -- using the workflow manager to do checksumming is 
going to slow down the crawler . . . and i had a bunch of checksum stuff in the 
crawler2 initially (MD5, PGP, . . .) -- you make me remove them because of you 
wanted to keep the dependency tree small . . . i still have them on PEATE if 
you want them . . . i also have an example on PEATE which uses the new 
ExternAction to perform a checksum.

> Allows for cases where there are one of two (or more) actions which needs to 
> run. For example: sometimes the same file types have different checksum files 
> associated with it, this allows for either case.
