Hi,

I'm forwarding your mail to bug-sipb@mit.edu which is the contact
address for the SIPB locker (available via 'add sipb') You can follow
up with them.  Thanks for taking the time to make the suggestion.

   Hi,

   Can you install unison (perhaps accessible via 'add sipb')?  Its like 
   rsync, but syncs both ways and is much faster in figuring out what 
   has/hasn't been changed.  Also sends and receives much faster (sends 
   multiple files at the same time).  And, to top it off, its easier to use 
   (there's even a gui for non-text people).

   If you guys do consider this, just be sure to install the version that 
   also has a windows executable available (I think the stable one does).

   Thanks.
