Congrats Joey, I love git-annex[1]!

Let's make it a two year position and throw in Tahoe-LAFS/git-annex integration;)

[1] and etckeeper, and mr, and moreutils...

Edit:

It occured to me that some people may not be familiar with the other projects I mentioned:

etckeeper: git/bzr/hg for /etc and apt firendly (http://joeyh.name/code/etckeeper/)

mr: easily manage a lot of repositories from multiple DRCSs git/bzr/hg/et al (http://joeyh.name/code/mr/)

moreutils: an expansion pack for coreutils. (http://joeyh.name/code/moreutils/)

Tahoe-LAFS: Cloud Storage for cypherpunks (https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs)



Integration with Tahoe is not that hard... http://git-annex.branchable.com/forum/tips:_special__95__rem...

That could be improved as described here http://git-annex.branchable.com/todo/tahoe_lfs_for_reals/ ... probably only a day or so's work.


Alright, if I get to dream big: pandoc[1] as a first class citizen in ikiwiki.

[1] Speaking of jgm have you seen his cloudlib project?


moreutils is awesome. I use vidir all the time to edit file names en masse with vim (using macros / regexes). So useful. I think it also works with emacs (you can specify any editor).

Sponge is also pretty cool.
