About
The volunteergrid is a tahoe storage grid from users for users. Contrary to the TestGrid–which may be flushed at any time for development/testing reasons–the volunteergrid is meant as a stable alternative to the commercial allmydata.com grid. It was proposed by Eugene L. in February 2009 and an introducer was set up by Zooko after the idea received a fair amount of praise. This introducer unfortunately died when nooxie's upgrade went wrong. A new, more resilient, introducer was implemented by François Deppierraz in December 2009.
There are usually between 15 and 20 active servers. Volunteergrid is not accepting new members at this time.
Best practices
- If you destroy data (by accident or decision), let us know! Please inform us on the mailing list or ping us on IRC.
- Please provide at least as much space as you use. (Don't forget to consider the redundancy factor: If you upload 1 GB of data, the grid will receive 3.33 GB of encoded data (3-of-10 encoding = 10/3 x file size = 3.33 x file size).)
Servers
Introducer
The introducer's address and FURL is secret.
In the unfortunate case where the current introducer would disappear, the following people should be able to bring it back into life: Zooko, Brian Warner. Ask on the mailing list or contact them directly.
