I disagree.  We're not so much Networker "drivers" as we are backups
professionals, and it's a good idea to know what the other products
are up to (example, what amanda can/cannot do wrt previous versions.)
The questions "bacula vs networker" fits here, and I don't mind seeing
that discussion fleshed out.

I wouldn't expect the GM sales guy to talk-up the Civic, but this list
isn't run by EMC, and that's one of the things that makes it so good.
If you and I are browsing through the dealership together, I'd hope
you'd steer me towards the Civic if it fit my needs better.

But, I think it's Stan's call.  I know I've been guilty of talking up
other backups products recently.
