+ Finding data scattered among distributed servers that are run independently is a long-standing problem. Various solutions like crawling the servers' contents, requiring standardized information about the contents so the can be indexed, et c., have been tried with varying success. The design here addresses the twin problems of motivating providers to write extra information that will make the data locatable and then increasing the time those documents remain valid. It is not a complete solution in the sense that not all providers will write the needed documents and, over time, some documents will go stale. However, it should have fewer problems than designs that fail to consider these realities.
