I'm sorry to have to cast doubt on this. I have heard the above many times on this list, but BackupPC development is opaque and centralised in the main developer. A lot of us write patches, and the Debian packagers seem to be helping keep BackupPC up to date. But getting those patches upstream seems impossible, and I'm beginning to wonder if v4 is coming at all. Regards, Tyler -- "We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men — not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate and to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular." -- Edward R.
