SilberWitch (nprofile…l7hq) I've an idea for Alexandria. Maybe you'll find it interesting.

Make it easy and integrated in the UI for authors to timestamp their books using opentimestamp (by pkt (nprofile…95ry) ). Then, you can group books into buckets using some kind of simhash (an hash functions that change very little when the content of the book changes).

For each bucket, only one book will have the oldest proof of publication, which I think will help users distinguish between the original and the near-duplicates.

The idea is incomplete since I don't know what to do with old books.
