[Csync2] Daemon ? Network

[Jean-Francois Stenuit]

Hello Michael,

I have the same objective here. I worked on a very bare inotify daemon in 
perl the last few days, which is almost ready. Now I could interface it 
with csync2 with a little help.

The problem I have is that I'm working in an active-active configuration. 
A synchronisation on one machine will trigger (via inotify) a 
synchronisation on the second one. I guess there is a risk of an endless 
loop there.

If needed I can share my design notes and my code.
