It isn't that what has been said on this thread so far is *wrong*, exactly. I think it is correct. But contrast the overall impression that one gets from this discussion with this story:
“At Virginia Tech Linux and Unix Users Group, we have a working Tahoe-LAFS deployment of about 9-14 nodes. It's incredibly reliable. It's based at Virginia Tech, with the introducer on a university-hosted servers, plus a few nodes in the dorms. One day, VT disappeared from the net. They had a problem with one of their uplinks and all their edge routers stopped routing. The introducer and about half the nodes on the grid were down for maybe an hour. At no point was any data stored on the grid inaccessible to any of the nodes, because all the ones outside could talk to the ones outside, and the ones inside could talk to the ones inside.”—Marcus Wanner How can both that story and also the things that have already been posted on this thread both be true? I think I'll just leave it at that for now.
