hello yeroc, in "theory" it`s still being maintained, but i think i share your point of view. at least i don`t really give big trust in rdiff-backup because i know, if i get a REAL problem, there are not many people around who can help here - too few people understanding rdiff-backup internals. i like rdiff-backup very much, but it seems, the development stage is over and the main contributors don`t spent much time on this anymore. same with librsync - there is an important bugfix in the CVS which is important for rdiff-backup, too - but still no new release since 2003-08-08. very sad about this.....
