I guess we can't really go about implementing a binary file storage module until we see the shape of acs 4.0 - can
we?
Right, which shouldn't be all that long though since they're putting out the core and bboard module first, rather than redoing all at once. Additional modules will roll out on their own schedule.
This is good, because we'll get an early look at the core.
Since very few places deal with binary files, using our own binary storage module and getting rid of my blob hack is one place I don't mind drifting from ACS Classic. If there's any hope of aD wanting to offer a non-db variant themselves, it would be easy to make modules call a binary store repository that could use either blobs or the filesystem, a configurable option. In act, we might want to do that anyway.
