Hi Fernan and everyone, I use rsync everyday through cron and it really works for me. It is very easy to use with proper examples of what is possible depending on your situation. It is also faster than doing a pure copy over a network if that would be an available option to you.
Backups are very serious business and if the Shotwell development team would be willing to take on the challenge I will support the feature. Their is nothing like losing all your photos after a disk crash. Experienced it once, not fooling myself twice.
