IPFS archives is the effort that's going on right now to archive sites. Eventually there will be a system for automatically scraping & re-publishing content on IPFS.

Fair enough. Eventually somebody will have to do a lot of work to get all that done then.

Right now storage space and inefficiencies in the reference IPFS implementation are the biggest problems I've hit. Downloading sites is easy enough with grab-site, but my 24TB storage server is getting pretty full :( ... Gotta get more disks.

Say you grab a site. How do you announce that fact, verify that it is an unmodified copy, sync/merge/update copies and deduplicate assets between different snapshots?
