Hi everyone,
Over the last weeks I have started to explore IPFS more seriously. IPFS, the Inter-Planetary File System, is supposed to be the next-generation Web: a decentralized content-addressed database.
Since there is nothing better then Pharo for exploring databases, I have started to write an IPFS interface to Pharo:

It connects to a local IPFS server, so you have to have one running. It's surprisingly straightforward to install and configure, unless you have to fight with firewalls that block IPFS traffic.
Great work ! I think Marcus was interested to have something like that. It is a solution to distribute scientific datasets ? A+ -- Serge Stinckwic h Int.
