Just ignore my comments on the file store. I missed the FileManager and FileManagerImpl classes ;-)

Search does not (yet) work in a distributed fashion. Is it pluggable at least, or would I need to do some work on this as well? I'll need to make things work with Endeca search anyway, so I might need to make the implementation a bit more general. > > > 2.

I'm thinking of perhaps storing the uploads in a database table. Is this something that other people would also be interested in? Perhaps I can do some work to make the implementation pluggable and contribute the source. > > 3.

I'll do some digging in the mailing archives. I can do wiki pages that summarizes Allen's post as well as things that I stumble across. > > - Dave ______________________________________________________________________ This email, including attachments, is intended only for the addressee and may be confidential, privileged and subject to copyright.
