Pros
- rsync would already know what's the latest backup to download based on the changes
- rsync would automatically deal with removal of old backup files that were previously removed from the server
Cons
- There are security considerations to take care of, since volunteers will have access to an account at Floss-Pa's server, which would probably be a dedicated backup account
