Administrators aren't a magic people. When you have a personal machine, you're the administrator. Time Machine has shown how to do backups in a sane way. I'd hope that we can achieve the same level of integration, and ease of setup. Right now, making backups requires too much work, and people don't do it. I'd really like it to be much simpler and straight-forward. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
