I hang out in #git-annex on OFTC (come and chat/ask for help).
[Getting mentioned by Joey](http://git-annex.branchable.com/devblog/day_277__thanks/) is definitely a (if not **the**) highlight of my involvement in the git-annex community. That really made my month!
Things that I am (or plan to) work on related to git-annex (in some way):
* FUSE filesystem for dynamic get/drop of content
* FUSE filesystem for metadata change/views (like tagsistant)
* Patchset for ikiwiki which allows it to be used with perlbrew libs
* Support for modifying git-annex metadata in my file sorting app
* Support for git-annex in my VR environment
# sorting annex

## explanation
* *base* created and a mkannex.sh script is added to it which inits a git-annex repository with the desired settings
* *base* is cloned to an empty drive as the "type" of files to be added (hd1, hd3)
* types are file, filelink, keyfile and keylink
* e.g. `git clone ${base_uri} keyfile`
* mkannex.sh is run and repository is named ${drive_serial}_${type}
* annex is populated with contents of $type, in directories created with `uuidgen -r` to prevent collision
* populated repository (hd1, hd3) is cloned to another drive (hd2, hd4)
* mkannex.sh is run and repository is named ${drive_serial}_${type}
* contents are `git annex get`'d from the populated drives
* *collate.git* cloned from *base* and mkannex.sh run, named "collate"
* remotes added to collate.git for secondary drives (hd2, hd4)
* *collate.git* syncs metadata, learning of all repositories and their contents
* *sorting* is cloned from *collate.git* to do sorting activities
* read-only remotes added for the content drives as required
