Planet Backup Manager

There are more and more people that use Backup Manager daily, for work or personal purposes.

I’m glad to see that, and want to to give the project a better shape for external eyes.
As explained in a mail sent to the users mailing-list, this could be done in two ways: a logo and a website design.

The project is looking for volunteers for a new website design (could be a Wordpress skin) and for a logo. We’ve been thinking at choosing a squirel or a beaver as a mascot for the project.

Submit your proposals either to the users list or to me directly.

A new release of Backup Manager has been published. This release closes a bunch of bugs reported in Debian and in the official Bugzilla.

The release notes are available here.

Here is the announcement made on the user mailing list.

I’ve also uploaded a new Debian package to sid, in order to provide 0.7.8 for the unstable distribution of Debian. Reports are welcome (but bug-related ones are prefered, if possible in the official Bugzilla rather than in the Debian BTS).
