OK, So you're missing one key FAQ item: How does your software differ from rdiff-backup? A compare and contrast page would be nice.
The only thing i really saw of significance was the use of LVM for snapshotting... that's not a feature to me, in fact it feels more like reinventing the wheel and that's lock-in to a particular file system. Tell me how you do it better (e.g. faster, more reliably, etc)!
