CAIRN is a modular copy and restore program for the imaging of a computer. It copies every file on a computer and figures out how to recreate it from scratch. It is primarily network oriented but is also flexible enough to boot from any possible method.
Replace tar/gzip with xar. Use the xar python wrapper and C library.
* Merge the cairn metadata into the xar metadata xml.
* Perhaps find a happy medium between CAIRN fs metadata and xar fs metadata.
* Verify that xar's extended attribute handling does what is needed for
CAIRN. This will make SELinux work with CAIRN pus ACLs and other stuff.
