 # Related Projects
 
+There are several projects in various states of maturity to extend Tahoe or integrate it with other tools.  (These are in various states of maturity and maintenance -- please update this wiki and post to tahoe-dev if you play with any of these.)
+
+ * François Deppierraz's Tahoe plugin for duplicity
+ * `tiddly_on_tahoe` -- Zooko's plugin for TiddlyWiki so it can save itself to Tahoe
+ * Shawn Willden's ambitious new backup tool project (interesting vaporware)
+ * `tahoewapijs` -- Nathan Wilcox's Tahoe JavaScript library (unannounced)
+ * `blackmatch` -- Rob Kinninmont's FUSE implementation
+ * `src/allmydata/gui/macapp.py` -- Rob Kinninmont's Macintosh GUI
+ * `contrib/fuse` -- three different FUSE implementations by three different authors
+
+# Spin-off Projects
+
+These are projects that are currently primarily maintained by Tahoe developers.
+
+ * foolscap
+ * zfec
+ * pycryptopp
+
+# Dependencies
+
+We are fortunate to have a vast library of high quality Free Software that we can re-use to build Tahoe.  We contribute patches and bug reports back to these projects.  The following list is incomplete -- see also source:_auto_deps.py.
+
+ * Python
+ * Twisted
+ * gcc
+ * Nevow
+ * setuptools
+

 These projects have no specific relationship with our project, but they are similar in some ways and so may be of interest.  We sometimes exchange ideas with the designers of some of these projects, especially on the [p2p-hackers mailing list](http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers).
 
  * [ceph](http://ceph.newdream.net/about) is a distributed filesystem intended to be scalable and robust.  It includes kernel code to be loaded into a Linux kernel.  There are several peer-reviewed papers about the design.  licence: LGPL

  * [mogilefs](http://www.danga.com/mogilefs/) is open source, inspired by the Google File System, written in Perl and uses MySQL.  It was written by the folks who made [LiveJournal](http://livejournal.com).  The name is an anagram for "OMG files".  licence: some combination of BSD and GPL and Artistic.

The founder, Terry Jones, is or was a researcher in the field of artificial life and genetic algorithms.  Here's [his PhD thesis](http://www.cs.unm.edu/~forrest/dissertations-and-proposals/terry.pdf).  He also contributes to the Twisted Python project.  fluidinfo hasn't released any source code.
