We should probably decide what the cutoff point should be, since it looks like 1.39 will be a database change from 1.38.

Now, I myself would really like 1.39 since it implements pool migration, which is important to my installation. However, I think 1.38.2 is really the bottom edge of what would be really useful, since with that level you get VSS support and Mac OS X HFS+ support. Storage encryption, which is somewhere in between 1.38.2 and 1.39, is also probably of great interest to the casual user (now if the backpack containing your DVD-ROM backup is swiped, the thief didn't get all your personal data!). So the 1.38.3 port underway would be a VAST improvement over 1.36.2.

I'm happy to beta-test and to do test builds on both i386 and s390 machines (and yes, there is a demand, from me and my company at least, for an s390 package).

I would second the sentiment that static linking, while it might be nice, is much less necessary than simply having a modern Bacula available on Debian. I don't mind a couple versions with too many dependencies while we get it figured out, if I get to exploit VSS support.

I'm happy to help in whatever way I can.

Adam
