Introducing ElchOS
##################################
:date: 2014-04-08 13:12
:tags: elchos, filesharing, conventions
:status: draft
ElchOS is a linux distribution with the purpose of providing a simple way to
share disk storage and data in a streamlined fashion. The intend is to solve
the 'Filesharing on the Chaos Communications Congress' Dilemma.
Filesharing on the Chaos Communications Congress
------------------------------------------------
File Sharing on the congress works like that:
1. there are quite a lot of people with somewhat potent servers and quite a lot
disk space (2tb and more). These people are willing to share their data
(e.g. linux distributions and so on) and even configure ftp access.
2. these people put their servers either on the desk they are sitting or
putting them in the congress colocation.
3. the servers get static ip addresses and may or may not land in the C3 Wiki
under: https://events.ccc.de/congress/2013/wiki/FTP .
4. servers in this list may or may not work correctly, have no anonymous
account or the queue is full or the servers are offline.
5. everyone on the congress simply downloads torrents from the 'real' internet
because it is just so much faster.
