Yes, I am behind on getting things done, the bug tracker is the most
obvious. I could use some help on triage and classification, although
I do reserve the right to withlist any request that does not fit into
normal backup parameters.
Right now, stability and robustness are the most important things
needed, followed by a rough roadmap of needed improvements.
Some of the bugs have been around so long that I think they have been
fixed and overlooked. More testing is needed.

developers could focus on the important stuff more easily if the
simpler bugs were correctly triaged and classified. That way,
developers wouldn't need to do this task and could, well, develop.
unfortunately the status quo is, nobody is really doing either ;(

are you using duplicity? if so, you have a machine on which you
can. if not. set up a virtual machine (e.g. with virtualbox or
virtualpc) with linux.

try to familiarize yourself with duplicity, python. don't be
afraid, hacking python is no brain surgery. answer questions (on
launchpad, mailing list) in case you know the answer. can it get
simpler? ;)
