| Actually, I think a signed package would suffice. MD5 checksum perhaps. |

| But, I think the biggest stumbling block is not security, but rather disk |
| 10 |
| space and bandwidth. All of these combinations would just become an |
| 11 |
| enormous archive. |

That's why I proposed freenet, it is a distributed datastore with |
| 14 |
p2p-like qualities. A file you put into it is mirrored around to other |
| 15 |
freenet servers. If a file isn't requested for a long time, and space |
| 16 |
is needed for newer files, it is purged. When you fetch a file from |
| 17 |
freenet it can come from any number of servers that have the file. |

It's worth checking out if you haven't played with it. |
