This is awesome. I couldn't find any info on how locking would work though - Word's temporary files that it uses to detect simultaneous opened filed aren't sync'ed to Dropbox (for good reason). Anyone any idea how this works?
- rlpb 16y agoI don't believe there is any locking at all. This the the USP of my startup - file synchronisation with locking fixed, so there are never any synchronisation conflicts. There is a catch though, which is that for high availability and locking functionality all nodes must be always-on (from the CAP theorem) - not that great for laptops. I am working on something to fix this too, though.
- roel_v 16y agoSounds good, be sure to post here when you release :)
