Description : a simple backup solution intended for desktop use.
NSsbackup (Not So Simple Backup suite ) is a fork of sbackup (Simple Backup suite ) .
The main reason for the creation of this fork is the difference between the two actual developers of sbackup
behavior.While the sbackup author seems not very able to spend some time on sbackup, there were some job being done by
the other developpers on bugs and features. This was fine till we happen to get to some point where we need a work on
both side ( project keys decision, packaging, distributing ).
NSsbackup is a OOP (Object Oriented Programing) version of sbackup I have started in Sbackup svn repository. The
project has the same intend of sbackup, but with new features (handling of logs, plugins architecture ... )
So basically, it's up to you to choose either NSsbackup or Sbackup (they are doing the same job with some little
changes ).
