>I'll eagerly await your patch to span multiple tapes. ...
Me, too :-). You wouldn't believe the crap I have to do every single
day to deal with this problem.
>How is this project progressing? ...
Slowly, between my "real" job and all the time I spend "helping" (well,
that's what *I* call it :-) folks on this list. I just need to buckle
down and code for a few days and maybe ignore my E-mail. I already have
all the notes on specifically what needs to be done.
>Is it available in alpha form via CVS or anything?
Not yet, but there is a branch dedicated to it, amanda-242-multitape.
So that's where the changes will be placed (as well as in the main
2.5 trunk). When it's anywhere close to Alpha state, I'll post something.

That's good to hear (well, it's good you may have found the problem :-).
