[tahoe-dev] Use Tahoe as a real-time distributed file system?

[Zooko O'Whielacronx]

Dear Greg:

This is great feedback! Could you please open tickets on
http://tahoe-lafs.org for any of these issues which aren't already
ticketed?

Please add the "sftp" and "fuse" keywords to the tickets, and also
link them to #1353, which is a meta-ticket tracking those other
tickets.

Thank you!

Regards,

Zooko
