Hello all , I am currently on this , Please Janos , make your decision.
Since I have looking at your project for very long time , And my client begin to ask for. It is very simple to implenent , because there is simple convertor from regular file system to S3. If you decided not to , please let us all know. In this case I will need to implement it by my self by the near future. I have a lot of respect to your project and your time and the willing to get pay for it. But if some one whould like to pay , is for the support not for feature. Please take a look on the proxmox project. By my self , and my clients , I do not mean to take off without S3. Please let us all know what have you decide. Thak you all for your support and your time. הורד את TypeApp עבור Android ב-6 באפר׳ 2020, 1:47, ב-Ryan Blenis <ryan.ble...@gmail.com>, 1:47 כתב: >Hi Janos, > >Thank you as always for your quick and in-depth response.
