Hello,
Are there any protocols that could be used with (say) Gemini
for capsules that are not always online ?

A while back I came across this project:http://solarprotocol.net/

They try to route traffic to the currently on server.That would require that capsules are hosted as a few copies. Iguess. But small groups of folks doing hosting at home could dothis. I don't know the technical details involved. And it seemsto me that still some component must be always online.

If a capsule is down today I try it tomorrow again.If a capsule registers new content to Antenna, I can see, it'schanging, i.e. "not dead".

Cheers,~ew
