History

The alliance was launched on 20 February 2015.[1] It included the Party for Democracy and Social Progress, the Renewal Party for Solidarity and Progress, the Coalition for an Emerging Benin, the Common Action Front for the Emergence of a New Ethic in Benin, the New Alliance for Development, the Party for the Impulse of Development and Active Solidarity, the Movement for Social Democracy, the Party of Collective Awakening for a Better Tomorrow, the Wadedji Democratic Party, the Liberal Reformer Party, Generation-Action-Progress, the Young Turks, the Movement for Solidarity and Durable Development and the Youth Movement for the Emergence of Couffo.[2]

The alliance won two seats in the 2015 parliamentary elections.[3]

gollark: There are some important considerations here: it should be able to deal with damaged/partial files, encryption would be nice to have (it would probably work to just run it through authenticated AES-whatever when writing), adding new files shouldn't require tons of seeking, and it might be necessary to store backups on FAT32 disks so maybe it needs to be able of using multiple files somehow.
gollark: Hmm, so, designoidal idea:- files have the following metadata: filename, last modified time, maybe permissions (I may not actually need this), size, checksum, flags (in case I need this later; probably just compression format?)- each version of a file in an archive has this metadata in front of it- when all the files in some set of data are archived, a header gets written to the end with all the file metadata plus positions- when backup is rerun, the system™ just checks the last modified time of everything and sees if its local copies are newer, and if so appends them to the end; when it is done a new header is added containing all the files- when a backup needs to be extracted, it just reads the end and decompresses stuff at the right offset
gollark: I don't know what you mean "dofs", data offsets?
gollark: Well, this will of course be rustaceous.
gollark: So that makes sense.
