[okfn-help] Progress on grid.okfn.org

[Rufus Pollock]

To follow up my last post [1] I've now got an proper pylons-based
webapp running at http://grid.okfn.org/ providing upload and browse
capabilities.

Planning info is on: <http://wiki.okfn.org/p/Distributed_Storage/Plan>
with relevant section excerpted below.

 * DONE 2009-05 --(Get basic tahoe grid up and running)--
 * Layer our own web interface over the web frontend to provide
required permissioning
  * DONE 2009-06-26 --(Replace simple html front page with basic
pylons webapp)--
  * DONE 2009-07-03 --(Functioning upload form)--
  * DONE 2009-07-03 --(Browse virtual filesystem)--
  * Implement file ownership
   * Requires login/logout support
  * Implement basic permissioning (owner and admin can do anything,
everyone else can read)
 * Sort out basic subdirectory structure
 * Think about how all of this works on local nodes
  * (e.g. does person who uploads at a local node also have to
register ownership on grid.okfn.org)
