Glad to meet you, Tyler, and glad to hear you're exploring Tahoe LAFS.  I
think it's a great tool and an even greater concept.

I do want to caution, though, that we view our grid as one intended for real
use.  That doesn't mean you can't experiment, but we do ask that you make a
commitment to keep your storage node(s) available and reliable for a
significant period of time -- one measured in years, not weeks or months.
 This is something we haven't explicitly called out in our policies (though
we probably should) but it's implied by our other stability/reliability
goals.

So, we'd love to have you come join our grid, and to experiment with it, but
please only if you intend to stick around and continue being a contributor
and participant.  If that's not your goal, you can certainly hang out and
chat, but another grid might be better for your experimentation.

In case you haven't taken a look at the wiki yet (please do!), our primary
requirements are:

1.  95% (ish) availability.
2.  A minimum of 500 GB of storage provided to the grid.
3.  Use no more than you contribute (taking into account expansion, please).
4.  Use no more than 1 TB, even if you contribute more.

Make sense?

Again, great to have you.  I love how our grid is growing.
