"Great Black Swamp" Proposal - Draft

Tue May 22 15:42:05 UTC 2018

Hi all,

I wanted to call attention to an in-progress spec I've been working on for
replacing the use of Foolscap protocol as used between client nodes and
storage nodes.

I'm working on the spec here:

https://github.com/LeastAuthority/tahoe-lafs/blob/2925.http-storage-node-protocol-spec/docs/proposed/http-storage-node-protocol.rst

The current version (as of this email) is here:

https://github.com/LeastAuthority/tahoe-lafs/blob/3d3c3d2eb4208bf9297a0f9d6bb0441efafa1fef/docs/proposed/http-storage-node-protocol.rst

There is also a Haskell reference implementation here:

https://github.com/LeastAuthority/haskell-tahoe-lafs-storage-server

currently just a stub - nowhere near complete.

Haskell is the link that explains the protocol name, by the way.  Great
Black Swamp is in Millis, MA, where Haskell Curry was born.
