[flux-dev] follow up on sync mechanism collaboration

[Martin Lippert <mlippert@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey!

In the call last week between the Flux team and the Codenvy folks, we discussed a possible collaboration around the basic syncing mechanisms.
The call got recorded and is on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJWsawVkpjs, but it is 1h17m long, so be prepared… ;-)

As discussed I started to document a few general ideas about the architecture of the prototype on the wiki:
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Flux/Prototype

This page contains a few pointers into the code and explains the general ideas behind the mechanism of the prototype. There are a lot of open questions and things that need to be addressed in the future, but we can start a discussion around that here, if you like.

Looking forward to working on the more robust and bullet-proof synching mechanism.

Cheers,
-Martin
