I am impressed with your willingness to support such a project, but you
should be aware that there are a couple of commercial products that do
archiving as described in the requirements list (not included in this
message), that may satisfy your needs.

To name a few...
	UniTree
	TOFS
	Epoch

A few public or almost public domain systems also exist:
	BUMP
	NAStore

Discalmer: I have nothing to do with any of these products.

P.S.  For those who may be interested...  I am currently in the process of
      writing a system based in 4.3BSD that will provide automatic movement
      of data from the online filesystems to offline storage for my Master's
      thesis.  It is not an "archiver" per se, but rather an hierarchical
      storage manager.  (If anyone could send me cold hard cash I'm sure it
      would help in my development efforts. :-) )
