wanna know something funny? The S3 mirror tool that we need for the

tool that does something simple, such as take a flat-file structure -
and has rsync-like functionality using basic GET/POST/PUT calls (such as
how S3 is used)...would be fantastic. It would be very useful to the
community. A minor amount of extra work could make the tool useful on a
much more broad level than just yum<->S3. I would really like to see
such a tool be made it's own project.
Could you elaborate a bit more on exactly what your requirements are?
There might be a way to modify iwhd (Deltacloud's Image WareHouse
Daemon) and/or wrap a script around it to do all sorts of migrations
between POSIX, S3/GSD and Swift/CloudFiles (now) plus more data-store
types coming soon.
