So this popped up on the interwebz
Surely there is some sort of triage of service provisioning which could benefit everyone here, bootstrap historic stuff to Autonomi, Internet Archive be no longer liable, Autonomi finds an extra way to bootstrap the users in a fair manner.
Maybe im overlooking something, just food for thought though.
I’m unware of anything stopping them publishing to autonomi. They should fill their boots!
well apart from rather iffy upload performance on large files right now…
But in general you are quite correct.
Just a teensy usability issue for now…
there is a bug that quotes time out after an hour if your upload does not go up in less than 60 min it will fail.
Unsure if that is a bug or a “temporary feature” deliberately introduced by ? @qi_ma for other reasons…
Anyway that bug/feature stopped me successfully uploading 3Gb last night when 2Gb worked well and someone else (@Josh?) got the 6Gb ubuntu iso up.
That iso got downloaded OK by quite a few folk.
I’d guess we could be Internet Archive-ready in a couple of weeks.
Sure but there must be a better incentive structure for someone uploading like… 70PB worth of data lol.. or at least a way to work out some cost / saving issuance ratio.
Ironically, it was none other than Brewster Kahle the founder of the Internet Archive who called 10 years ago for the creation of… Autonomi 
And Mark has been writing about this for a long time…
… and not long ago
@JimCollinson, has MaidSafe tried to talk about a partnership with The Internet Archive?
“Not AI, but IA” 
There is a phrase that being too early is still wrong.. If the system works, now might be the time lol.
…Although I do know a handful of people who raised eyebrows at the whole non native token thing.. its odd, which put people off.
