Two things:
1) The rdiff-backup project likely won't accept patches for features
that are platform specific. There are exceptions for OS-specific
filesystem metadata, but VSS doesn't fall into that category.
2) I've written a python extension module in C++ to implement VSS. Is
that something that you'd be interested in?

I was going to try to add support for Windows Shadow Copy Service
based on this code/concept:

and am wondering if anyone had suggestions related to this. The
concept seems simple enough, make a shadow copy of each drive involved
and change the location of the backed up files from the actual drive
to the vss image. I was thinking a new flag could be implemented
'--vss' in order to tell rdiff-backup that vss images are desired.
