Hi, I need to store some backups files for really long-term (eg: I've no intention of checking them out unless I have some serious hardware crashes). I realize that tarsnap uses AWS for file storage, and these sort of files could really be stored in Amazon Glacier (which has lower storage costs). I'm wondering if you guys (eg: tarsnap devs) would ever be willing to implement a a feature to mark a certain file (or maybe all the files stored with a certain key) as frozen/long term storge. I'm not just thinking about reducing costs to the end users; some of the savings can be kept by tarsnap itself in these scenarios, and, unless the implementation is a pain, there might end up being some profit on both sides. What do you guys think? Is this doable, or is there some technical limitation? Cheers, -- Hugo Osvaldo Barrera A: Because we read from top to bottom, left to right. Q: Why should I start my reply below the quoted text?
