[Unison-hackers] How do people feel about DropBox?

Without trying out the software, but just looking around their web site, I
notice a couple of things right away:

* You have to run their closed-source daemon on each of your hosts.
* You store files on their servers and have to trust that they'll be safe
there.

I'm not inclined to be paranoid, but I'm allergic to both of these
requirements-- neither of which Unison suffers from.

Andrew.
