    initial v1  
    11Here are the design criteria I'd like to see satisfied:
    22* A ''grid specification'' (grid-spec) is a file specifying a set of servers, and optional parameters such as a recommended share placement policy or recommended encoding parameters.
    3 * A ''grid-cap'' is a global, securely unique reference to a grid-spec. It can be a mutable or immutable reference (e.g. a hash of the grid-spec or a public key of an authority that can publish updates).
     3* A ''grid-cap'' is a global, securely unique reference to a grid-spec. It can be an immutable or mutable reference (e.g. a hash of the grid-spec or a public key of an authority that can publish updates).
    44* There is an IANA-registered URI scheme (say, {{{lafs:}}}) that has a grid-cap in the authority field, and a file-cap in the path field. Like most authority-based URI schemes, the authority can be omitted and implied by the context.
    55* Local aliases can map to URIs that include a grid-cap.
