There are occassionally Tahoe-LAFS meetups at Noisebridge. Check the discuss mailing list archives to see if there is one soon.
There is sometimes a Tahoe-LAFS meetup at Noisebridge on Thursday nights. Check the discuss list to see if there is one this week.


===Onion Grid===
Some Noisebridge-affiliated people have recently begun operating an experimental Tahoe-LAFS grid using Tor Hidden Services. Contact [[User:Leif|Leif]] by emailing <tt>leif at synthesize dot us</tt> if you're interested in adding a storage node and using the grid.
 
Some Noisebridge people operate parts of the Onion Grid, a LAFS grid using Tor Hidden services.
 
'''Note that Tahoe clients have a persistent identity, so your interactions with servers are not remotely unlinkable at this time. (fixme: link to the trac ticket about this)'''
 
Here is a config to connect a client to the Onion Grid (using the "usewithtor" command to start Tahoe):
<pre>
[node]
nickname =
web.port = tcp:3456:interface=127.0.0.1
web.static = public_html
tub.port = 4456:interface=127.0.0.1
tub.location = localhost:4456
 
[client]
# Which services should this client connect to?
introducer.furl = pb://ifwpslh5f4jx2s3tzkkj4cyymrcxcunz@bvkb2rnvjbep4sjz.onion:58086/introducer
 
# encoding parameters:
shares.needed = 2
shares.happy = 4
shares.total = 5
# (this means 5 shares on at least 4 servers, any two of which can recover your data)
 
[storage]
# Shall this node provide storage service?
enabled = false
</pre>
 
FIXME: write instructions here for configuring a hidden service to be an Onion Grid storage node.
