I'd hesitate to say it's unmaintained - while he was around, Ben (the
author) was extremely helpful. As I understand it he's changed his working
day (I think he was at university and how now left), and doesn't seem to
have time for rdiff-backup anymore. So yes, I suppose it is unmaintained.
There are a few patches around, but it would be good to collate them. 

Is anyone in touch with Ben?
