Set up IPNS names for list files from solc-bin
Related to #9935 and #9258.
One IPNS name pointing at a directory containing all the lists would be the most convenient option for users but that requires extra post-processing on the computer hosting the files to create the directory. Having separate IPNS names would be acceptable too though not as good.
We're considering also hosting a Brotli-compressed version of every binary (with .bs extension) on IPFS only (i.e. not committed to solc-bin). To make these compressed bnaries discoverable we'd create corresponding lists (e.g. list.bs.json). We should have IPNS names for those too.
Hi everyone! This issue has been closed due to inactivity. If you think this issue is still relevant in the latest Solidity version and you have something to contribute, feel free to reopen. However, unless the issue is a concrete proposal that can be implemented, we recommend starting a language discussion on the forum instead.
I think this issue still relevant and we should keep it open for now.
Actually, it should probably not be an IPNS name for the list file, but for the root, s.t. <ipns-name>/bin/list.json etc. pp work.
