AppData\Wuala\Data\Temp\Upload
What is the purpose of AppData\Wuala\Data\Temp\Upload?
Is it stuff that needs to be uploaded?
If so shouldn't it be empty if nothing is uploading?
What if it has a Gig in it? Last modified a month ago?

Inappropriate?i dont have appdata.... the wuala files used to be in
%programfiles%\caleido\wuala\ and there in data\upload data\download and so on...
but as for more recent builds they are in %temp\wuala\ upload and download or somewhere there in %temp%\wuala\
nevertheless the older builds of wuala left a big mess in the old folders, never cleaned up the old temporary files, downloads, uploads, parts- and chunkfiles.
its a pretty big chaos if you ask me that caleido doesnt care about their data layout and their mess they create on the harddisks of the users.
the usual mess on the windows platforms. companies being arrogant or ignorant about what they do and how they behave.
this has been discussed before in other threads and never really gotton any further than the information of the wuala staff that %programfiles%\caleido\wuala (and there temp further down in the tree) is the old place for tempfiles, and that gotton changed over to %temp%\wuala\....
why they simply couldnt clean up their own mess has never been answered by the caleido people.
if you ask me, they gotton counseling directly by microsoft, as their whole windows platform works this way. create mess and never clean it up again. fill up the users machines with junk and never being able to fix it again properly.
way to go :D

Inappropriate?I'm on the vista. That sentence sounds so bad. The wuala libs and cache are in c:\users\public\appdata\wuala\
I've just considered some of this space waste a side affect of joining when it was debatable if it was alpha.
A program that I'm writing doesn't clean up after itself. Although it is far from even completely working. Cleaning up after itself is on the list of things to do, sort of near the top.
I’m confident

Inappropriate?every file you create you should also to consider deleting at some later point of time. keep track of the mess you create on storage devices. prime directive. its actually a human virtue if you keep yourself out of trouble and avoid a mess even from the beginning or if you simply dont care.
guess the caleido developers dont care shiznit about such minor things as messing up your storage devices or not.
