Nice idea which mirrors a lot of my current thinking; far more details are needed.
For example: "All conflict resolution happens locally in each peer using a deterministic algorithm." Hrrrmm.... if the model is to use CRDTs for conflict free resolution I can believe it; if it's timestamps, for instance, I'm much more doubtful.
- marknadal 13y agonoelwelsh, thanks for the comment! Timestamps do fail pretty miserably for handling conflict resolution - while my algorithm does use timestamps, the timestamp is hardly responsible for the actual synchronization. It just provides a basis to initially sort things off of, and then the conflict resolution kicks in. Obviously I'm going to need to do a pretty detailed post on how this works, cause unless it can be battled-tested and skeptically investigated by others, it is only as good as snake oil. So more on this soon! Thanks for bringing it up.
