Anyone on this list interested in being paid to re-do the Windows client? Ideally, I'd want something with an easy-to-use installer. Should work more consistently than the current Windows client, and file restores should be simple. I don't care if it's a ground-up reimplementation, or what language it's in.
Any takers? Approximate asking price to do the job? Anyone else want to chip in money to make this happen? JC Simonetti said: > You have 3 ways to backup Windows by Amanda: > 1.
