The whole paraphrasing, "Bacula will sue you"  I saw directly on the Bacula Systems site..  I 'm sure it was worded a bit more PC. But it threatened the possibility of legal action against anyone using the bareos software.  The whole branching/forking is bad I read many places including backups.org, I think Kern's blog,  and also in a power point presentation I believe used by Bacula Systems for some conference in Europe last year.  I am not spending my evening finding the links.  You certainly have every right to find me full of shit and disregard my opinion.

Including a bunch of nonsense out of the Bacula camp like, “If you use Baroes software, Bacula will sue you” and “Braching is bad for open source”.

Do you have URLs for that?  I didn't see any of that from the Bacula project.
