[FR]: Synchronization over unreliable networks

[dzanq]

I just started using OC and am surprised about the basic requirements for a useful application.
For me the most important one which is not always fulfilled is a reliable network connection. I want to use OC over mobile internet (GPRS, UMTS, LTE) and synchronize large file (100MB++) at the same time. Therefor the file transfer has to handle an interception of a TCP-session gracefully. I suggest to use the BitTorrent approach with the OC server acting as a tracker. One additional advantage is the support of multiple seeds, if the wanted content is available on different devices a the same time.
I know that it will not be easy to change the underlying synchronization, but I believe that OC would benefit from such a feature a great deal.
