Two-way sync would be a crazy-hard problem; one-way should be relatively easy. Could start out as a straight copy rather than a sync, but adding sync increases the usefulness significantly. - Rescue Discovery App Using the OSF as a storage layer, allow folks to browse a collaboratively generated list of data sources to rescue. Where possible, make it trivial to capture the data in question. Keep track of what data has been rescued and other metadata related to the capture (what percentage of the data is rescued, does the data need to be updated frequently, how redundant is the capture, is there good information on using the data, etc).
