I'd like to see some implementation of "distributed" backup. Something =
like
client devices, centralized database. Server to server gives some field =
to
play here, but it's not a real distributed backup solution.=20

Client devices would allow for great reduction in network traffic, whe =
were
working with large clients (mainly databases) or slow lines.

This would lead to anoyther wish: Distributed ADSM database 8-)
