Yep, currently I was not spending much time on it. I spent a lot of time
on version 0.1 then on the begining of version 0.2 and I got
demotivated. I was then punctually fixing bugs on  version 0.2 and I
didn't release it so far.

As far as I know, no one. there are been some new members in the team
but I believe they have currently other priorities.

The plan was to "merge" NSsbackup to Sbackup in version 0.3. In fact,
merging is not the appropriate word. NSsbackup will be renamed Sbackup.
The code is now to different to try a merge.

I saw all the bugs and patches that you have opened. Very impressive. :)

You can already put changes in 0.3 as the 0.2 branch is already
separated. In fact big developments can already be done in 0.3.

Thanks again for your interest and thank you for re-motivating me :-) .

PS: I have put in CC the team mailing list where there should be Aigars
(the author of Sbackup).
@Aigars: if you would like to add or rectify something ... :)
