Re: [rdiff-backup-users]-- rdiff-backup abandoned? rdiff-backup crash

[Jeff Blasius]

I've been on this list for at least a month and so far have never seen 
any helpful
responses or plans for bug fixes beyond the faq/wiki help. Is this 
project abandoned?
Are there any developers out there or should I look for a more supported 
project?
Thanks!
