  Description     : Distributed Internet Backup System

DIBS is a backup system that protects your data by giving your files
to peers (and in return, you store their files) so that if a
catastrophe strikes your area, you can recover data from surviving
peers.

Note that DIBS is a backup system, *not* a file sharing system like
Napster, Gnutella, Kazaa, etc. In fact, DIBS encrypts all data
transmissions so that the peers you trade files with can not
access your data.
