Hi David,
Thanks a lot for your feedback.  You bring out some really good points.   My
comments are embedded below.  And, please do let me know if I did not get
your comment right. I am new to roller and am still getting used to the
environment and the terminology being used :)

Thanks,
Ganesh

*Ganesh: That's correct.  **We can create a unique id for the uploaded files
in the database and use that to generate permalinks.   **I am not sure how
permalink for other resources are implemeted in roller.  Any thoughts?

*Ganesh: That will be great to have.  But is it possible to implement given
that we are planning to make uploaded media files available to others in the
blogging community.  How easy will it be to track the references to a given
file in all blog posts?

*Ganesh: If I understand correctly, the current ability is purely for blog
posts and the blog reader will have to click on a specific date to view the
posts for that date.  In the proposal, we meant to have the ability for a
blog owner (not the reader) to filter his/her uploaded files by the range of
dates when the file was uploaded.  However, the kind of filter that is
currently available for blog posts will be a good one to have for a blog
reader to browse the media library.

*Ganesh:  We did not think of this requirement.  Will it make sense to have
copyright statement as a metadata for the uploaded files? *
