Portable implementation, and RAID implemented in userland for reliability without complex server setup or expensive hardware. (optional)What's New in This Release:· The diffing algorithm was highly optimised for speed.· Bugs were fixed. Solaris support was added.· Portability improvements were made, including a new autoconf based build.· Xattrs are supported on Linux and Darwin, which backs up resource forks under Mac OS X.· Experimental features include keep-alive on long diffing operations, saving state for non-server use, a native Win32 port, and support for MinGW and MSVC under Win32.
