Hello again. I am close to 0.1 release, the first numbered release. Mostly documentation-related tasks are missing. Since my last update, I've made rather quality improvements (e.g., not using utf-8 where not needed, disconnecting BDVM from network and so on) than new features. I've also organized issues on Github in milestones.
But the reason why I am writing now are some changes I wish to make in upcoming releases and I might need your help. First, the current backup storage has hit its limits. I want to create Merkle-tree-based backup storage that would be agnostic of backup backend you use. Aside of various security improvements and reliability improvement (atomicity of backup), this will allow one to use different backup backends for different VMs. I've planned this change for 0.2, but I am ready to postpone it if I feel there is not enough of agreement on its design. That's exactly the reason why I want your comments: https://github.com/v6ak/qubes-incremental-backup-poc/issues/37 Second, there is an ongoing discussion about backup backends. I consider Merkle-tree-based storage as a prerequisite of implementing another backup backends, but we can discuss now: https://github.com/v6ak/qubes-incremental-backup-poc/issues/35 And there are more issues tagged as “help wanted”. Even if you don't feel like contributing with your code, but you want to discuss the design, you are welcome: https://github.com/v6ak/qubes-incremental-backup-poc/labels/help%20wanted Regards, Vít Šesták 'v6ak' -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
