Yall,

I've been re-writing grapevine, and this is proceeding slowly.  It's
much better the second time round!  Anyone who's interested can check
'grapevine2' out of cvs.

I also contributed to Anthony's irate project a bit a few months ago.

I've had ideas recently about maintaining retrieval counts for file
fragments (and the sharing of this information in the local area), and
using that as a method of deciding what each node should ditch and what
it should retain.  Retaining would also involve attempting to retain a
minimum number of replicas in a local area.

Another idea was quite brilliant:  Use 10% of the nodes - the ones who
karmic debt says need to contribute - in the normal way described in the
Technical Overview: holding the network together and allowing requests
to find the right place in them.  The other 90% - generally nodes with
greater storage - would hide in the background.  The first 10% would
know what files they have, and would call upon them when it was
necessary to do so.  The first 10% would only deal with popular files,
while the last 90% would generally be responsible for the majority of
files of lesser popularity.
