Description
The data storage interface is currently very restrictive. The concrete read/write methods could be removed from the interface which should therefore support new methods to indicate that an experiment/configuration/replication has started / finished. All classes requiring access to data storages will then have to indicate which data storage interface they require. An additional plug-in type can be created which can convert between interfaces if this is possible.
Work on this issue is in progress and first results (less restrictive interfaces) have already been included in the 0.8.7 release.
