I spot checked a few of the boxes to see what their /home size was.  Of
the app, proxy and db boxes had nothing over 36MB.  The internal box we
use for our internal cvs repo had the largest /home at 728MB.  Probably
a fair portion of that was just people's sandboxes.

As I think more about it, rather than backup all /homes, how about we
choose one that we let people know it is backed up and the others
aren't.  As we work on scripts and such we know that if we expect it to
be backed up that we keep it on the box that has /home backed up.  I
would lean towards the box with the internal cvs repo that gets /home
backed up (currently at 728MB).  What do people think about that?

That sounds like the same ballpark I would have ended up in.
