[tahoe-dev] CodeCon!

[Michael Walsh]

Zooko, this sounds to be one of the more interesting demos out there
and one I'd love to see, if any of the allmydata folks have say, a
Flip camera and wouldn't mind recording the extreme file recovery demo
- perhaps even host the video on the public grid...

Seeing files stored across N machines, and another "guest" coming up
to also "take Peters laptop out of the grid and simulate node failure
through use of an axe" - it could be a good fun way to demonstrate
recovering using K of N.

Regards,
Michael.
