* The files that the Assistant started trying to drop were, I believe, the first (alphabetically) files in my repository to contain non-ascii characters in their file names (some French accented letters)
Thanks.

One thing that would be incredibly helpful with the kinds of bugs I've seen in the assistant is if the daemon.log contained info about *why* it is dropping or transferring content. "transferring content because there was only 1 copy and we need to fulfill numcopies" "transferring content because it matches such-and-such a preferred content expresson" "dropping content because it does not match this preferred content expression" -- that would remove a lot of mystery about the way the assistant is working.
