## Upload Strategy Of Happiness
The *Servers of Happiness* criterion is already in place for deciding whether a given distribution of shares over servers satisfies the user's requirements for fault-tolerant distribution. However, the algorithm that decides what shares to upload to which servers is not optimized to always satisfy the Servers of Happiness criterion.

Implementing the *Upload Strategy of Happiness* should close the following tickets: #610, #1124, #1130, #1293, #1382, #1814.
