## Introduction
-Mirall synchronizes your folders with another computer.
-
-The ultimate goals of Mirall are:
-
-* Network location aware: should not try to sync against your NAS if you are
- not in the home network
-* It is a zero-interaction tool. So forget about resolving conflicts.
-* It should work silently and realiably.
-
-Mirall is in early stages of development, and may still eat your
-files or hang your computer.
-
-* Network location awareness not implemented yet
-* Current version supports local and remote (sftp and smb) folders.
-* It is powered by csync (http://www.csync.org), however
- the user does not know and other tools will be incorporated to provide other
- functionality.
-
-## Current issues
-
-* No sane way to backup conflicting versions yet, this should be solved
- in a near csync release (--conflictcopy, available in Jann's branch).
- Right now the newest copy wins.
-* You can't remove folder configurations
- Workaround: delete ~/.local/share/data/Mirall/folders/$alias and restart
-* Some tasks block the GUI (initial setup of watchers)
-* May be some concurrency issues
-
-## Roadmap
-
-* Improve robustness to minimize user interaction
-* Improve feedback and sync results
-* Add support for other folder types: tarsnap, duplicity, git (SparkleShare)
-
-## Requirements
-
-* Linux (currently it uses inotify to detect file changes)
-* unison installed in the local and remote machine
- (you should not care if you got Mirall with your favorite
- distribution)
