[Okular-devel] MD5 document identification

  Hi,

I built a system to centralize my annotations for a document collection 
I have of scientific articles. I like to download them from a central 
document repository online and have them use any annotations I had from 
a previous read. I used the attached script that uses md5 checksums to 
see if the articles is already in my repo and uses that instead of the 
downloaded one (the script might not work straight out of the box though).

Any way, maintaining my own pdf repo is a bit of a waste, I was 
wondering what you think of associating annotations with md5 checksums 
or something like that instead of file paths. For bookmarks 
unfortunately this does not work, because you need the path to open the 
file.

Any thoughts?

Miguel
