A List of Amazon S3 Backup Tools

In an effort to s3sync.rb is written in Ruby as a sort of s3sync which is now abandonware. Given that I already use rsync for much of my backup system, this is highly appealing. S3 support as of version 0.7.3. It's a command-line tool for Linux (and likely other Unix-like systems). WebDAV front-end (or "virtual filesystem") to S3 storage, so you could use many other backup tools with S3. Recent versions of Windows and Mac OS have WebDAV support built-in. Java is required for s3DAV. duplicity is a free Unix tool that uses S3 and the S3 Solutions is a list of other S3 related tools on the Amazon Developer Connection. Brad Fitzpatrick (of LiveJournal, SixApart, memcached, perlbal, Jungle Disk provides clients for Mac, Windows, and Linux. It also offers a local WebDAV server. For those keeping track, non-S3 options suggested in the comment on my previous post are rsync.net, and a Amazon's S3 forum is quite helpful. The discussion there is generally of good quality and the software does the job nicely. Perhaps we should do something similar for SyncBack SE, so I don't need to re-solve that problem. I don't really need a fancy GUI. I'm really looking for a stand alone tool that's designed to work with S3 and keep bandwidth usage to a minimum. Alternatively, something that works at a lower level (such as a filesystem driver) to provide a "virtual drive" type of interface might work as well.
