The source code is very nice too. For people who want to see an example of simple, high quality C source code, I highly recommend reading Tarsnap. It's small too, so it's very easy to get all the way through it.
... and if you find anything wrong in the source code, you can win bug bounties too!
I'd love to use it...but I'm Canadian, so it's a hackish mess of duplicity scripts for me.
Stay tuned.

Good Dr.,
Be certain (if you've got time) to write a worthy blog post on the results of that Canadian tax situation. I'm curious as I (was, is, could have been) in a similar situation.

I didn't get such an email, most-likely because I wasn't subscribed to the mailing list; if there was a prompt during sign-up, I must have missed it.
yes, the tarsnap-announce mailing list https://twitter.com/cperciva/status/220665293515653121
What's not mentioned is that throughout the outage the customers were getting timely emails from Colin letting us know what's going on. We didn't have to go to a blog, twitter, facebook or some other ungodly place to find out what's happening. This is how it should be done.
