I don't want to cut this section, because the points that it makes are
important ... but those points aren't a good fit for the purposes of this
document. If someone needs some examples of why badly managed chain
replication can lose data, this is the section to look in. ^_^
All of the major surgery required to move Chain Manager design & discussion
details out of the high-level-machi.tex document are complete. I've done
only a very small amount of work on the original high-level-machi.tex to
fix document flow problems.
There's probably a good way to have LaTeX automatically manage the
mutual references between the now-split documents, but I didn't know about,
sorry.
Major changes, when compared to the original Basho-internal document:
* Start removing strong consistency topics to a separate doc (unfinished)
* Remove section on per-file metadata management: it was too speculative IMHO
* Remove the following sections (numbering is relative to v3 of internal doc):
7.2.1 scenario 1, 13.3, 14
* Move the "Recommended Reading" section to the end
