PyGFS is a reliable and secure distributed file system that runs completely in user-space. The advantages of user-space are many: no kernel modification, no OS crashes due to buggy code, debugging is easy, etc. Moreover, for the development point of view, in user-space it's possible to exploit all the nice features provided by the user-space libraries. It means that with few lines of code it is possible to provide a lot of interesting features (respect to the kernel-space implementation approach). This initial release of PyGFS includes the following features: - simple client-server approach (like NFS) - reliable network/server error handling - x509 certificate authentication, authorization and encryption support Download PyGFS 0.1 here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=213928&package_id=257684&release_id=565965 Enjoy, -Andrea
