We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher to contribute a project named LibreCloud on self hosted, distributed, redundant and secured cloud services. The main goal of the LibreCloud project is to help end users to better control their personal information and data, at a very low cost and with the quality of service of a commercial cloud solution.

The LibreCloud project aims at packaging a GNU/Linux distribution tailored for cheap and power efficient personal computers (Raspberry Pi, Parallella, Plug Computers). The distribution shall be easy to install and manage and shall embed the largest possible set of services (agenda, notes, address books, bookmarks, keyring, storage, e-mail,...) that are usually found on commercial cloud infrastructures. Its main characteristics shall be strong security (privacy, confidentiality, integrity) and safety (redundancy, backups, continuous availability across time and space).
