Hello Olin,

some of the wisdom is already present there, in the archives :)

Probably would. There are some limitations, let you search the archives...
Depends on your file sizes.

Shouldn't be a remarkable difference.

>   + Were one to choose between lustre, coda & intermezzo, can anyone

Haven't tried the other ones, so cannot blame :)
Self have chosen Coda for some misterious reason :)

>     + clients for Win, BSD, linux & Mac good

No Coda client for MacOS yet, to the best of my knowledge.
Feel free to port the *bsd one (the kernel module), shouldn't
be hard - but yet nobody did...
