  Description     : Scalable public and private cloud storage

 Skylable Sx is a reliable, fully distributed cluster solution for your data
 storage needs.
 .
 With Sx you can aggregate the disk space available on multiple servers and
 merge it into a single storage system.
 The cluster makes sure that your data is always replicated over multiple nodes
 (the exact number of copies is defined by the sysadmin) and synchronized.
 .
 Additionally Sx has built-in support for deduplication, client-side
 encryption, on-the-fly compression and much more.


I am part of the upstream developers, and we would welcome if a DD (team) would
submit and maintain this package in Debian.
We are interested in helping with the packaging and applying bugfixes upstream.
