After some three or four months of working out the basics of Baccus I dare to expose this baby to the rough world. It still stands on very wiggly feed so please take it up with care, and only when you know what you are doing.

I plan to use Baccus as a professional backup solution for a small webhosting company as well as for the personal computers in my family environment, so it surely will evolve over time. This release shall encourage other developers to take a look and try it out, and if it pleases to contribute bug reports, patches, ideas, or nice comments.

Baccus is hosted in a darcs repository at: http://www.magma.com.ni/repos/ , together with bits and pieces required to install and use it.
