    55 == more filesystem-ey ==
    5653 * [http://wieldysoftware.com/octavia/ Octavia] is a new distributed filesystem inspired by Tahoe-LAFS and intended to improve on Tahoe-LAFS in performance and usability. It is very new and not yet usable except for experimentation.  licence: GPL

    59  * [http://hadoop.apache.org/core/ Hadoop] is open source, inspired by the Google File System, written in Java, supported by Yahoo, and seems to have broad acceptance among programmers (at least compared to the alternatives).  licence: Apache Software Licence v2.0
    60  * [http://kosmosfs.sourceforge.net CloudStore] formerly known as "Kosmos Distributed File System" -- is open source, inspired by the Google File System and written in C++.  licence: Apache Software Licence v2.0
    61  * [http://www.danga.com/mogilefs/ mogilefs] is open source, inspired by the Google File System, written in Perl and uses MySQL.  It was written by the folks who made [http://livejournal.com LiveJournal].  The name is an anagram for "OMG files".  licence: some combination of BSD and GPL and Artistic.

    68  * [http://flud.org flud backup] is an ambitious decentralized backup system.  flud has the distinction of being one of the few decentralized storage projects with a sense of humor.  It appears to be dormant.  licence: GPLv3

    7056 * [http://git-scm.com/ git] is a decentralized revision control tool. No wait! It is a beautiful decentralized data store with a grotesque revision control tool built on top. (Zooko takes full responsibility for this careless slander.)  licence: GPLv2
