Glad to hear that, THANKS.

I know.
I hope this time we will get enough momentum.
Any help will be very welcome.

We are trying to contact Craig (who seems *very* busy with his new position), 
but
he might not be available at all.
In that case we will do a baseline commit from tarballs and start from there.

If You can, it would be nice if You could bring the repo up-to-date with 
current CVS.
After that we can decide if to open a new project for v4 (rationale being it 
really
changes a lot and even backend repository structure is not compatible anymore;
nice nickname might be BackupNG) or simply do a branch and populate it with
tarball contents.

Understandable, many of us are in the same position.
Any contribution, even raw ideas, will be appreciated.

That's strange; currently topmost message at 
https://sourceforge.net/p/backuppc/mailman/backuppc-users/
(not dev!) is mine (Re: [BackupPC-users] Status on new BackupPC v4

I am "mcondarelli" on github (https://github.com/mcondarelli) and I would like 
to join https://github.com/backuppc
organization.

I send this message in CC: to the list; whoever is interested in helping out 
*managing* this (David, Juergen, who else?)
please speak up. I would like to keep this list short, but not *too* short.

Should we move this discussion to the BackupPC-devel list or is it better to 
keep it here to get a wider audience?.
