Please report any bugs or regressions to Sourceforge bug tracker. Also an update for translations and new translations can [...]

All the time since the Debian I18N conference in Extremadura I was moving around, staying in temporary places having temporary accesses to restricted Internet connections. Finally yesterday I got everything back – a permanent place to stay and a good permanent and unrestricted Internet connection there. Now I just need to compensate for the productivity [...]
Get it while it’s hot! It has been uploaded to Debian and will get to the mirrors in a day or two, but if you really want it now, then grab 0.10 release from Sourceforge. The last version of SBackup was released in last November so this has been long overdue, that is why I [...]

Here is the first screenshot of a new tab in the SBackup configuration that allows you to automatically erase old backups. There are two options: plain and simple “keep backups for X days and then erase them” or the smart (and default) progressive trimming option in which you have more backups of recent times and [...]

I spent the whole day today investigating and fixing SBackup bugs and adding new features. The 0.10 release will be da bomb! My current plan is to spend 10 more hours on this tomorrow and after that I will declare a feature and string freeze for 0.10 and will give the translators a day or [...]
