Re: [Question #170670]: P2P distributed storage (like Wuala)

    Status: Open => Answered

Philipp C. Heckel proposed the following answer:
I read quite a bit about Wuala. And I know that it's an interesting
technology. However, I do not think that the effort for the creation of
a system like this is worth it -- especially since there are so many
free storage providers out there.

Regarding Wuala: according to the material I've read, the P2P concept is
a very small chunk of the actual application. The data is largely stored
on Wuala's servers (or their storage provider).

Don't get me wrong: I think it's a great idea and Syncany would really
benefit from it if there was a P2P plugin :-) -- And I'd be happy if
someone would make it. I just think it's not simple :-D
