If it's possible, I wanna do it. :) But seriously, I live in the UK where luckily we have hardly any power cuts (maybe once every three years, and it lasts about 5-10 minutes), but I'll still probably get some kind of battery (uninterruptable power supply) backup anyway. So yeah, I'd REALLY like to maintain the availability of my app whenever I do any hardware upgrades, and be able to just hot-swap computers whenever I like. Wasn't this planned for version 3 of Prevayler? Has it already been done yet? There has to be a way I can make this happen in version 2.3 of Prevayler, right?
