Hi Greg,

the main problem with this is that now the files referenced in the mediapackage 
will contain urls to an arbitrary number of working file repositories. In 
addition, your setup leads to lots of unnecessary downloads from the working 
file repositories to the node's loca workspace.

With the latest 1.4 and its archive implementation, this problem will be gone 
because the working file repository will no longer be a relevant as a long-term 
storage for mediapackage elements. Instead, it will become the short term 
working storage that it has been designed for. However in 1.3, I don't see how 
you would go about changing the mediapackage element's references that are 
being stored in the workflows, the episode service and last but not least 
search. You could be mapping all DNS names to one single host, but that would 
not help you get rid of the downloading between workspace and working file 
repository. Maybe someone else has an idea?
