I don't think it's basically CAS at all. You need the name in advance before you can narrow it down with the digest.

- ithkuil 6y agoMy point is that it would have been trivial to define the registry protocol to just require the digest. Do you see any reason why a pure content addressed registry protocol could have not existed?
- jacques_chester 6y agoNo, I absolutely agree with you. It could have been a CAS design, but right it's not. It would take a V3 of the Registry API -- I commented on that in the DigitalOcean thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24983077 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24983077
