While doing research for this project, I ran into IPFS, which is nearly identical to the DVS concept. Hats off to @jbenet for stumbling into this concept first and doing a great job so far.
IPFS seems to lack a few features, for which I have filed issues. Because it is much more mature, I suggest using IPFS. Hopefully these features will be supported soon (if they aren't already):
I will direct my efforts toward IPFS and applications built on top of it.
