Hey Cameron-
  I've looked at this a bit before. Duplicity does need to support glacier
and I did a bit of basic work in that area previously, but not enough to
get it production ready.

Here's what I've done so far:
https://code.launchpad.net/~eric-friedrich84/duplicity/glacier

However the duplicity list and retrieval is _very_ rough around the edges.
I've also gathered some feedback from one of the duplicity maintainer's:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/duplicity-talk/2013-01/msg00008.html

If you feel like this might provide a good base to continue work, I'm glad
to keep this effort going.
