Background: git-annex supports storing data in various [[special remotes]].
The git-annex assistant will make it easy to configure these, and easy
configurators have already been built for a few: removable drives, rsync.net,
locally paired systems, and remote servers with rsync.
Help me prioritize my work: What special remote would you most like
to use with the git-annex assistant?
[[!poll open=yes 16 "Amazon S3 (done)" 12 "Amazon Glacier (done)" 9 "Box.com (done)" 72 "My phone (or MP3 player)" 25 "Tahoe-LAFS" 10 "OpenStack SWIFT" 33 "Google Drive"]]
This poll is ordered with the options I consider easiest to build
listed first. Mostly because git-annex already supports them and they
only need an easy configurator. The ones at the bottom are likely to need
significant work. See [[cloud]] for detailed discussion.
Have another idea? Absolutely need two or more? Post comments..
