Folks: Ludovic Courtès was the curator of a bibliography of research papers on "cooperative backup" which was linked from our Bibliography page [1], he did his PhD thesis on cooperative backup [2], and he recently packaged Tahoe-LAFS for NixOS [3].
He just posted this release announcement of a new version of his "libchop" library, which he originally implemented as part of his thesis.
