Tahoe is perhaps the most promising P2P Backup and VmWare and XEN are the
best known
virtualiazation applications today.
Amazon uses XEN for their Grid C2 service.. and a great number of medium to
large business are adopting server consolidation via virtualize datacenters
using VmWare..

I would like to use P2P Technology to backup Virtual Machines Environment
like VMWare/XEN...  Basically it would entail installing a Tahoe client in
every instance of VmWare.... and or XEN... There are better cleaner ways to
do it.. but at the most basic level this is what it needs to happen.
