Are Safe Vaults servers or not: a discussion

[zeroflaw]

@neo

But both network engineers and sys admins work with real servers all day long in their jobs and they know the definitions. I prefer to use the usual usage of the words when talking networking (computers and protocols) devices.

Would you go and survey 20,000 network engineers and sys admins and get back to me with the results. This claim is as unfounded as the one maidsafe is making.

@neo

What amazes me is that you proclaim to know that vaults are servers yet do not know how the basics of the safe network works. For instance you did not know that one large archive vault could not be the safe network in any shape of form. Anyone who has even a basic understanding of vaults and sections know that one vault cannot be a safe network since a vault cannot operate without being in a section which has many vaults. But I gather you do now know.

Yes, I am now aware that a software limitation stops a single vault with a copy of all the chucks in the network operating.
