Most of what is described in that paper is now
libventi, vbackup, and vnfs.  There was some
notion that it would be interesting to try storing
data in a peer-to-peer storage system, but when
push came to shove we just set up a well-equipped
Venti server for our own backups.  It's got 15TB of
raw storage providing about 7TB of venti arenas
(mirrored).

The only unreleased piece is a tiny protocol
translator I wrote to convert between Venti protocol
and DHash protocol.  DHash was and still is
a research prototype.  You don't want to trust your
data to it.
