I've also started following the CVS repository on github. You can
find that at:

http://github.com/pcmantz/backuppc-cvs/tree/master

Where is the upstream repository these days? It seems the one on SF.net
is no longer in use as it has no commits for a long time. I can't find
any info on any other repository than the SF.net CVS-repository.

Paul: where do you sync your backuppc-cvs repo on github from?

I may not have this exactly right, but basically Craig Barrett is the
primary and in many cases sole developer of BackupPC, although other
users certainly contribute bug fixes and even entire modules.

Hence, unlike other multi-developer public domain projects, there
really hasn't been a widely used repository with frequent new
contributions and builds. Basically, when Craig has a new release
ready, he distributes it. Often, there is an initial beta release to
shake out the last bugs, followed weeks to months later by an official
release.

Craig has been relatively silent now but last we heard, he is working
on a new 4.x version that is a radical rewrite of the current way of
storing the metadata and file hierarchy of each backup. As far as I
know, Craig is working on this alone and none of it has been released
to any public server. I assume there will be beta releases when it
gets closer to completion.

Meanwhile, since Craig is focused on 4.x and 3.x is quite stable,
there really has been no recent activity on the 3.x tree except for a
bug fix release about a year or so ago. Other than collecting bug
fixes, there is no official work on changing or adding features to 3.x.

Cool! Is there any more info/gossip on what more that will possibly change in
v4?
