Sparkleshare is heavily leveraged on git, which is interesting, but
it probably doesn't help this use case (posting emacs canary builds
for public download) at all, since it's self-hosted. Seafile might also
have this property - I wasn't entirely clear from my quick reading if
they had a non-self-hosted free-as-in-beer option.

Two and a half projects; I was speaking too loosely.  Sorry about
that.

Most of the projects I knew about where more interested in improving
dropbox's (basically terrible) security model, and were interested in
SUNDR.

Searching for recent references turns up an archive of a very similar
conversation on this list last May.  Sorry to be repetitive. :-)
