I have asked Bacula Systems to give the Enterprise version to individual
Bacula community users. I will know by the end of the year. That would
probably resolve the problem. I still do not have the time to maintain
two separate code bases for Windows. However, if I cannot get
permission to give the Enterprise version free to individual users (this
excludes, enterprises, ...) then I will create a separate community
version of Windows (one or the other will be available by 1Q15). In the
mean time, if you are a Bacula contributor, you can get the Windows
binaries free, and if not, the price is ridiculously low considering all
the work that goes into making them.
