Comment (by kevan):

 The old publisher won't finish until it has either placed all of its
 shares somewhere or has tried and failed a certain number of times to do
 place all of its shares somewhere. In the second case, a failure message
 is returned. The new publisher will return a failure message if it can't
 place enough shares for the file to be recoverable. So the robustness
 criterion in the old publisher is whether all shares are placed somewhere,
 and the robustness criterion in the new publisher is whether enough shares
 are placed for the file to be recoverable.
