And changing FileLibrary (maybe subclassing to have
WAExternalFileLibrary) so that files are held in a remote server. You
think there is an interest (I think it's different from Colin's
approach?) ?

I may give a try in I find some time :s ) but I need to load 2.9
first. Still that way ?

"Yes, the easiest way is probably to load the
Seaside-Squeak-Kom-Full-lr.5 MCM and then either update manually or
"update from repositories"."

yes except, you had in one day what I had in a month :) 5000 a day is
really cool. How many concurent connections at max, 30-50 ?
