Re: [rdiff-backup-users] rdiff-backup 1.1.10 released

[dean gaudet]

i think before i could see that happening i'd like to know how many people 
have upgraded from 1.0.x to 1.1.x and whether they had any problems...

i'd also like to know if there are any folks doing large backups with 
1.1.x:  a few million files minimum, 0.5 TB+, non-zero quantities of 
hardlinks...

as i mentioned i'm still using 1.0.5 and probably won't switch soon, so 
i'm relying on the community to provide enough proof that 1.1.x is 
actually stable.
