I'm sorry to have to cast doubt on this. I have heard the above many times
on this list, but BackupPC development is opaque and centralised in the
main developer. A lot of us write patches, and the Debian packagers seem to
be helping keep BackupPC up to date. But getting those patches upstream
seems impossible, and I'm beginning to wonder if v4 is coming at all.
