The permanent archive is the immutable aspect of the permanent wiki. The aim is to create a publishing medium for wiki. It is designed to store immutable assets such as images, video and audio together with standard single page sites, and finalise json data.
# Objectives
A core objective of the Permanent Archive is to store online assets so that are easy to recover. To do this we look to use an archive file naming convention.
- Recover Lost Assets - Discover Versions of Media Assets - Loose Coupling of IPFS - One Big Wiki - Paragraph Level Atomicity
When the assets are created, they will first be placed in a conventional filing system on the wiki server, using a filing system structure as follows, illustrated for a wiki under domain name outlandish.academy:
outlandish.academy assets css img js media
An asset will be placed in the appropriate sub-directory based on its mime type.
