+## version 3.20121210
+
+This release of the git-annex assistant (which is still in beta)
+consists of mostly bugfixes, user interface improvements, and improvements
+to existing features.
+
+In general, anything you can configure with the assistant's web app
+will work. Some examples of use cases supported by this release include:
+
+* Using Box.com's 5 gigabytes of free storage space as a cloud transfer
+ point between between repositories that cannot directly contact
+ one-another. (Many other cloud providers are also supported, from Rsync.net
+ to Amazon S3, to your own ssh server.)
+* Archiving or backing up files to Amazon Glacier. See [[archival_walkthrough]].
+* [[Sharing repositories with friends|share_with_a_friend_walkthrough]]
+ contacted through a Jabber server (such as Google Talk).
+* [[Pairing|pairing_walkthrough]] two computers that are on the same local
+ network (or VPN) and automatically keeping the files in the annex in
+ sync as changes are made to them.
+* Cloning your repository to removable drives, USB keys, etc. The assistant
+ will notice when the drive is mounted and keep it in sync.
+ Such a drive can be stored as an offline backup, or transported between
+ computers to keep them in sync.
+
+The following are known limitations of this release of the git-annex
+assistant:
+
+* The Max OSX standalone app may not work on all versions of Max OSX.
+ Please test!
+* On Mac OSX and BSD operating systems, the assistant uses kqueue to watch
+ files. Kqueue has to open every directory it watches, so too many
+ directories will run it out of the max number of open files (typically
+ 1024), and fail. See [[bugs/Issue_on_OSX_with_some_system_limits]]
+ for a workaround.
+
## version 3.20121126
