The objectives of this project go beyond creating a distributed datastore (which can be done using hypercube routing, see Plaxton etc), and we have many auxiliary requirements regarding the survivability of data, resistance to localised attacks, and at least some level of anomity for publishers and readers. It is clear that highly mobile data is an essential ingredient in these. < > > > I will experiment with variations on the caching, but removing it is not > > what we want. > > I'm not advocating we remove it permanently.
