To enable running peerix instances to obtain extra functionality without having to compile sources themselves, I propose to establish a repository of binaries. The respoitory will sit on top of FUSE and Io.c.
The structure will store a minimum of metadata with the directory structure expressing the kind of content.
Some metadata must be held in the repositry.
- Version number of a binary
- C library it is compiled against
All other metadata is managed by the network.
