2009	One Grid to Rule Them All	nejucomo	daira	"Introducing a use case and associated ticket keyword: `globalcaps`

This is an enhancement request to fulfill this use case:

A user knows a `$CAP` they want to share with the world, so they tweet it, or print it in a book, or otherwise share it across time and space to a potentially boundless audience.

Anyone using the right software setup who sees that `$CAP` has a reasonable chance to retrieve the contents.

There are many related design issues, as well as existing mailing list posts and tickets:

* My call to action: https://tahoe-lafs.org/pipermail/tahoe-dev/2013-June/008447.html
* A request for a ""grid id"" feature that's complementary: #403
* Many relevant keywords which this issue is tagged with.

This ticket has a scoping problem: when do we close it?  I recommend closing it when either of these conditions are met:

* One user emails a $CAP to tahoe-dev and another user successfully retrieves it without us sharing any introducer information with a checkout from the official `tahoe-lafs` git repository (any branch); ''or''

* There is a new separate code base established whose purpose is to implement this use case and whose URL is in this ticket."	defect	new	normal	undecided	code-network	1.10.0		extensibility servers-of-happiness location newurls security globalcaps
