The beaker browser is a very fast moving target. ... I really like the concept of the distributed data storage. See: https://datproject.org/ Beaker browser 0.7.x is nice and it allows the TW beakerSaver to directly create a new file on the host filesystem. ... This area is called "staging area" .... BUT .... Version 0.8.x will completely remove this feature without a replacement <https://github.com/beakerbrowser/beaker/commit/352e06c43bd47939f5d3d57188d64bc56ba672fc>... yet! So the existing saver will only create a TW file in a "hidden" DAT filesystem. The advantage still is the distributed behaviour of the filesystem, .. but it will considerably slow down our file:///local userexperience. At the moment we won't win much, in terms of complexity. I think the concept is still great, to experiment with, but beaker is still a --web first-- experience. Even if some stuff is stored in a locally hidden filesystem. ... End of rumbling ;) have fun! mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
