I received:

Chris.Hassell wasn't found at betsol.com."
(I just tried sending email to this email address. My message was
accepted for delivery by the Betsol mail server, and I haven't received
any bounce message back [after waiting a few minutes]. So hopefully
the
bounce you saw was just a temporary misconfiguration on the Betsol mail
server...(?) )
Ack -- I just discovered that my 9/13 test message did result in a
bounce message after all. (The bounce message went to my spam
folder.)
I tried again just now, and his email address still bounced.
So it would seem that Chris is indeed no longer at Betsol :(
Ah, that's bad. So again no more direct upstream contact at Betsol.
Still no packages provided by them for 3.5.2, still no activity at the
Github-issues, etc etc
Sad.
Let's see who follows.
Thanks for the test, Nathan.
What follows is a four letter word. fork. The question is how do we pay
for a continuation of a better way to
do effective backups. And who is to be "in charge". IOW, do we let it
fade away into the sunset for lack of
adequate support, or do we who have benefited from it, step up to the
plate and make it a DIY project.
TANSTAAFL is the operative keyword here. So who gets the bill for lunch?
.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
