Hello, 

I have released the tar source file for Bacula BETA 1.38.4-20060112 to the 
Source Forge bacula-beta section.  I have made the following changes since 
the 09Jan06 beta release:


Changes to 1.38.4 BETA since beta 09Jan06:
- The main changes are to the Director and the Storage daemon,
  thus there is no need to update your File daemons. Just the
  same, I do recommend running with the release 1.38.3 Win32
  FD.
12Jan06
- Correct bug in alist.c that re-allocated the list if the
  number of items goes to zero.
- Move the reservation system thread locking to the top level
  so that one job at a time tries all possible drives before
  waiting.
- Implement a reservation 'fail' message queue that is built
  and destroyed on each pass through the reservation system.
  These messages are displayed in a 'Jobs waiting to reserve
  a drive' list during a 'status storage='.  Note, multiple
  messages will generally print for each JobId because they
  represent the different problems with either the same drive
  or different drives.  If this output proves too confusing
  of voluminous, I will display it only when debug level 1
  or greater is enabled in the SD.
11Jan06
- Add enable/disable job=<job-name>.  This command prevents
  the specified job from being scheduled. Even when disabled,
  the job can be manually started from the console.
- During 'update slots' clear all InChanger flags where the
  StorageId is zero (old Media records).


At this point, barring any new bugs or other major problems, this version (or 
some small modification of it) will become the release 1.38.4 version.  After 
that, only minor bug fixes will be made to version 1.38.x.  

Work on version 1.39.4 is proceeding on the
  - Python GTK console  (Lucus)
  - Data encryption (Landon)

and once 1.38.4 is released, I will re-begin working on the Migration project.

Kern
