+Background: git-annex supports storing data in various [[special remotes]].
+The git-annex assistant will make it easy to configure these, and easy
+configurators have already been built for a few: removable drives, rsync.net,
+locally paired systems, and remote servers with rsync.
+
+Help me prioritize my work: What special remote would you most like
+to use with the git-annex assistant?

+
+This poll is ordered with the options I consider easiest to build
+listed first. Mostly because git-annex already supports them and they
+only need an easy configurator. The ones at the bottom are likely to need
+significant work. See [[cloud]] for detailed discussion.
+
+Have another idea? Absolutely need two or more? Post comments..
