[Grub-dev] Url dispatching and failed upload

Hey everyone, just a few quick questions and the like.

>From what I can tell the server dispatches workunits to clients, each
clients get a unique workunit.
If the upload fails, what happens to the work unit?
Is it forgotten about?
Or put back into the list to be given to another client?
If it is forgotten about this could leave gaps in the data.


As I mentioned in my last post to this mail list, the cleanup process is ran
even if the upload fails, I would like to add a feature to disable this
cleanup action in cases such as the upload failing. I have no trouble coding
this myself, but the question is, can I?
and once that is done, how do I get the code into the repository?
Do I pass it onto someone with SVN access?
Or is this a bad idea?

Also my issue I mentioned earlier (code 401 upload failing)  just appeared
on my Linux machine, the interesting thing being that it succeeded once,
then failed once, and has now succeeded 4 or so times flawlessly. Maybe a
timing issue? not sure.

Thanks again,
Chris
