~dld/pool comparison to Sekrit Overall Plan

[Drake Diedrich <Drake.Diedrich@anu.edu.au>]

Hello,
   The Plan and the sql packagepool I wrote are quite similar.
Here's a mapping of similar or identical things:

SQL packagepool		Sekrit Overall Plan	Differences
---------------		-------------------	-----------
incoming/,pinstall	Incoming		mv instead of ln

spool/			Holding

bleeding,experimental	NPkg			packages go direct to pool,
						but require human
						intervention to get into
						some distributions such as
						the stable track.

TABLE pool		tag info database

filesystem,TABLE pool	Package Pool

filesystem,no pool	Reject			Packages not listed in pool
 entry						are subject to eventual
						deletion

pclean			Cleaner Process

delete_after		Trash			pclean could mv rather than
timestamp, no other				rm expired files.  It's
dependencies					already pretty conservative.

packages,sources,	How Package Files	release manager or script
contents		Are Created		has already compared versions
(eventually made				when updating pool table.
 one prog, all inside				straight table dumps, very
 a transation)					quick.
