nope, things can be disconnected and offline. That's nearly the default state. |

SketchCow |
tech: I assume there's some client program running that is querying git-annex, on windows boxes or linux or whatever |

SketchCow |
pr: has git-annex had any major announcement or is that a slow burn |

tech: git-annex is a single standalone binary. No server. You just run it |

Let's not forget the automatic features. You can specify "keep x copies of all files in this directory" and it will make sure you have enough copies around by a) offering to only copy files that have too few copies and b) not allowing you to drop files with too few copies |

So perhaps we could make something that lets you download and make chunks of 20 or 40GB, which you could then upload directly to archive.org. |

10 files of 20GB would fill an item, and I don't think 10 files is too much. |
