[tahoe-dev] some error

[erpo41 at gmail.com]

I think tahoe should checksum these files when it writes them and then
verify the checksums when it reads them. If the checksum fails, the
executable should just delete them automatically and try again (if this is
the only sensible course of action) or prompt the user whether to delete
them (if there is some option other than deleting them).

Thanks,
Eric
