Chat Log

00:26:12	tuti:	Hi, a question: Is there a plan for mutable multi-user filesystems?

So e.g. a datastructure that ties a DID to a list of unixfs/wnfs roots and includes a predictable merge strategy or a way of marking conflicting files as such for user resolution.

00:28:57	tuti:	Thanks, will read about dialog.
00:30:24	tuti:	that means though that the "shared folder" use case of nextcloud/dropbox/googledrive is out-of-scope for wnfs for the foreseeable future, right?
00:32:42	tuti:	aha, thanks! yes that is very much what I was asking about in my first question. good to hear there's a plan for that.
00:32:47	Zeeshan Lakhani:	Yep, we’ve def been talking about it.
