Thanks for the comments Tobías. I've a good idea now and definitely I
will give it a try.

About the replication feature, do you have some ideas in mind?

I was thinking in different possibilities:

1. Develop a feature in the same squeaksource that does this.
2. Use some sort of replicated file system (as XtreemFS:
http://www.xtreemfs.org/). It will require to install it on XtreemOS
(http://www.xtreemos.eu/)
3. Use some nosql horizontally scalable DB (as Riak / Cassandra)
4. Use Magma/Gemstone

But, I repeat, just ideas until now. I was thinking in this feature to
my own use, because I need a reliable store of my source code on my
company.

Cheers.
Germán.
