Hello,

For posterity I cut'n'pasted Zooko's summary of (part of) today's dev meeting:

1. "The reason we can do better than the previous state of the art is
that we've expanded the setting to multiple servers and multiple
clients, which opens up new defenses for the good guys against Pondo
Baba."
2. "It is useful way to think, to start with the completely safe
camouflaged download protocol: just run your normal verifier, but tell
it to save what it gets, and then to talk about how to make it faster
without breaking camouflage."
 3. "There are two dimensions of how you might be able to make it
faster: the dimension of multiple downloader/verifiers and the
dimension of multiple servers."


I also created a wiki page to archive future meeting notes and to
document the agenda:
