Code repositoryFileSystemStorage (FSS) is a storage for AT fields that stores the field raw value on file system instead of the ZODB. Typicaly, you will use FSS for the back-end of your file fields.
This storage strategy saves room in the ZODB.
You may use the tools that come with FSS to publish the contained files to a files server (samba, etc.)
Please note that FSS is a software component for developers. Using FSS requires you already understand Archetypes, and you know how to build or change an Archetypes schema.
IF YOU MIGRATE FROM 2.5.X TO 2.6.X, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS ABOUT CONFIGURATION AND MIGRATION INCLUDED IN README.TXT BEFORE INSTALLING THIS PRODUCT IN YOUR SITE
