I might be confused now. Isn't this what aliases are good for? For example,
http://216.243.10.44/atlas/atlas_networks_logo_143x75.png is an alias of URI:CHK:tslxqfx375xr7dvehtuytz37u4:j2ygje3wlaf3vw6wustqnfzdl2qy23kbojhxpfkxcp74wh5ac7jq:3:10:5433 (granted, there's a tiny bit of proxy magic going on here, but this can be accomplished without that) Best Regards, Nathan Eisenberg Sr. Systems Administrator - Atlas Networks, LLC www.atlasnetworks.us | www.suncadianet.com > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:tahoe-dev- > [email protected]] On Behalf Of tahoe-lafs > Sent: Tuesday, January 05, 2010 9:12 AM > Subject: Re: [tahoe-dev] [tahoe-lafs] #217: DSA-based mutable files -- > small URLs, fast file creation > > #217: DSA-based mutable files -- small URLs, fast file creation > ------------------------------------+---------------------------------- > ----- > Reporter: zooko | Owner: zooko > Type: enhancement | Status: assigned > Priority: major | Milestone: eventually > Component: code-mutable | Version: 0.7.0 > Keywords: mutable crypto newcaps | Launchpad_bug: > ------------------------------------+---------------------------------- > ----- > > Comment(by zooko): > > Argh!
