What a *lot* of people really want is an alternative to Dropbox — something that functions very like Dropbox but without exposing your plaintext to spying and corruption. David-Sarah implemented a part of this with the drop-upload feature. It seems to me that the blocker which prevents Tahoe-LAFS from doing the rest of it is that LAFS clients have no way to get an asynchronous notification that a file has changed (i.e., so that they don't have to poll to find out if the file has changed). So: could we add that? Why not just define a remote interface offered by LAFS clients to LAFS servers. The remove interface is "hey_you_this_file_has_changed(storageindex)".
Another approach would be to embrace a standard mechanism like [PubSubHubBub](PubSubHubBub). That might help with our long-term goal of moving from foolscap to HTTP, and it might let us benefit from the work others do on issues around this such as DoS and scalability.
