| Description: | Parity Archive Volume Set (1.1-1) | |
The idea behind this project is to provide a tool to apply the data-recovery
capability concepts of RAID-like systems to the posting and recovery of
multi-part
archives on Usenet. Current filespec and clients support the
'Reed-Soloman Code'
implementation that allows for recovery of any 'X' volumes for 'X' parity
volumes present.
The key to this mission is a clean file format specification which provides
all the
necessary capabilities for programs to easily verify and regenerate single
missing parts
out of a set of archives.
We might just be able to make binary posting and downloading on Usenet a
little easier.
That's a pretty cool goal! | ||
