  1. Yes, I just signed for an invite out of curiosity. A BitTorrent based sync solution would be great for many people who are trying to avoid relying on third party "cloud" services. The most advanced are coming up with their own DIY solutions such as using rsync or unison, or look towards bigger web based solutions such as owncloud. At these point, all these approaches have weakness in either their speed, background task efficiency or availability on mobile operating systems. A BitTorrent based sync solution could change this situation dramatically. However, if this project is not free software or open source software, I will no be using it: 1. I do not want to trust personal files to proprietary software. Having the files hosted on your own machines instead of thirdparty black boxes is one of the selling point of this project. If the software is proprietary, nothing is solved, the problem is just moved. 2. I do not want to set up an infrastructure on a system that has no vision on its community development and maintenance. I sincerely hope this project will be released under a free software license.
