OK... I volunteer to update https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/docs/quickstart.rst to mention install Tahoe-LAFS using the Debian package. >> 2. Tails persistent volume assistant feature additions: > It's good to have a concrete integration proposition!

And... would that not be better to have, like you propose, 3 > columns, but the third being Tahoe, so users can choose to persist > localy, OR on Tahoe, OR both - by selecting one column, the other, or > both. But... Tahoe column should be grey if Tahoe has not been configured. Since Tahoe-LAFS is not a posix compliant filesystem... we cannot easily create a persistent volume that only stores data on a Tahoe grid. There is an ugly FUSE hack but it is extremely ineffient. So there should be three options per persistent file-set: 1. do not persist 2. persist to local media 3. persist to local media AND a Tahoe-LAFS grid For the use case where you only want to store the data in the Tahoe grid... then simply use the Tahoe commandline tools to upload the file(s). > And also, who volunteers to hack the persistent volume assistant? I volunteer to hack the persistent volume assistant. I would certainly help out with documentation as well. >> 3. periodic Tahoe-LAFS backup scheduler > I suggest to raise the idea in Tahoe mailing list... once it exists we > can see if it's interesting for Tails :) I agree! Daira from the Tahoe-LAFS dev team pointed me to the relevant Tahoe trac tickets. I will be carefully reviewing these... and chatting with the Tahoe-LAFS dev team when I need advice/assistance/ideas. >> >> 4. Tahoe-LAFS backup GUI applet I'll be opening a Tahoe-LAFS trac ticket about this one soon. Of course it will have to be written for the same desktop environment that Tails uses. I agree that this is lower priority than hacking the persistent volume assistant and writing a Tahoe-LAFS client configuration assistant. I will work on those first. Onward!
