Here you have a central server and stuff. Before somebody told me he |
| 16 |
wants to create the following: A p2p network where all the data is |
| 17 |
stored in the network (on different peers) and not on a central server. |
| 18 |
There you get a really distributed system with lots and lots of things |
| 19 |
to think about and lots and lots of problems to address. Argumentation |
| 20 |
was something like, it is very unlikely to get a server with enough |
| 21 |
disk space to store all packages in all configurations. |
