Hello Dirk, My little world of developing Bacula has totally spun out of control -- for example, last week, I was away from home 4 out of the 5 working days, and the whole weekend. Next week, I am gone all week. I cannot complain because it is all new exciting stuff (e.g. a 40 meter or 132 foot long autochanger), but it makes it difficult to keep up with my email much less do development.
During the week of the 13th of July and possibly the follwing week, I hope to be able to devote the whole week to Bacula development, so if the part that you are blocked on waiting for me can wait until then, we stand a chance of moving forward. If that isn't the case, please let me know, and I can spend a couple of hours Friday outlining what is needed, and either find someone else to help you with the core code or help you get into it ...
