For now, Michael, if you have enough capacity and want to donate it to Trinity, the best way is to join as a new mirror that syncs data from Mike's primary mirror. If you have the capacity to keep backups of the contents of the mirror, well, that may come in handy. For backups, personally, I am very happy to abandon the principles used for tapes - that is, tarballs, because it seems to me to be very impractical in all respects. For disk-to-disk backups, it seems to me to be the best way use of the hardlink principle. This adds great flexibility to backups in a very natural way and, above all, eliminates the need to distinguish between full × incremental backups, as all backups can be used as full while all are performed as incremental. I use dirvish for this purpose. For further considerations involving any paid services, we should wait until the acceptance of donations and project funds is resolved. Without it, it is premature to devote time to such discussions. Cheers -- Slávek
