[tahoe-dev] not tahoe-lafs but related: client-side encryption for Dropbox

[Julien Lacroix]

I am using http://boxcryptor.com for a few weeks now, seems working 
flawless.
Technical approach looks same like secretsync but it depends on .net 
(and you don't need to create an account).
Also dir/files encrypted with BoxCryptor can be mounted with EncFS (>= 1.7)
anway, closed source.

yours,
Julien
