Subject: nicer API -- you don't have to shuffle the shares into place before calling decode_all()
X-Git-Url: https://git.rkrishnan.org/pf/content/en/seg/%22news.html/...?a=commitdiff_plain;h=36c3742929ee18191510240bc79131131021bac0;p=tahoe-lafs%2Fzfec.git

nicer API -- you don't have to shuffle the shares into place before calling decode_all()

Instead it does that shuffling in C inside fecmodule.
