Hello,

As Mark Pariente did once, I would also like to start off by thanking
you for EncFS. A wonderful idea to protect data in the clouds!

I have been working in a .NET port [1] of the library encfs-java [2].
As .NET is the platform of choice in Microsoft-based environments,
it makes sense to have a .NET library that can interact with encfs -
and even more so, considering that mounting filesystems in Windows
is not simple (to say the least) for the average user.

This library is released under LGPL as well, and at the moment provides
exactly the same functionality that can be found in the Java library -
with the same features and limitations.

I plan to rewrite the API to make it more '.NET comfortable' and
also to integrate it with sharpfilesystem [3]. A simple UI program
that allows you to 'explore' an EncFS system on the local harddisk,
but also over SFTP, is also on its way.

Incidentally, the demo project seems to work with Mono as well,
and I successfully tested it on Ubuntu 12.04. There is a zip
file with the built libraries (for Windows or Mono) and the demo
project available [4] if you want to give it a try.

Any feedback is highly appreciated!

Best regards,
