Message-ID: <20150628105729.582697227@smtp.laposte.net> Sorry to bother you -this is my first post in years to this list, because I'm more of an end-user than an actual contributor; only very interested in Tahoe-Lafs. My question is the following: what do you think of the "prepackaged" initiative by the announced "Community Cube" project? I saw there is no mention of it in the list archive. To me the whole thing appears quite interesting (possibility to 'just buy and switch on' : an occasion to strongly expand our base), but at the same time it looks like only two persons are running the show, while committing onto a LOT of developments, of which Tahoe-lafs is only a little part, and with that they intend to evolve and maybe fork it (in order to somehow constrain the percentage of storage used vs proposed to others). This, with a delivery date announced in a matter of months. I'd readily invest at least in the smallest model, which if working looks extremely interesting for my 'beginner' case. But... I'm a bit skeptical, and some of you may point me towards more credible alternatives... In any case all your comments will be extremely welcome! TIA, Herv? -- Herv? Sainct fh.sainct at laposte.net
