This release of Allmydata-Tahoe is suitable for Use Case #2: "groups
of friends who want to share backup and file-sharing" (see the wiki
page "UseCases": [3]). It is easy to set up a private grid which is
securely shared among a specific, limited set of friends. Files
uploaded to this shared grid will be available to all friends, even
when some of the computers are unavailable. It is also easy to use a
public grid, but to encrypt individual files and directories so that
only intended recipients can read them.
