Given the current status of the maintenance on rsync upstream, it's going to be handy to have an alternative packaged in the repository just in case.
Could you elaborate on the state of rsync upstream? I have never had any problem with rsync personally, and they appear to have made three releases in the last 12 months. Superficially, it looks like software that is approaching its platonic ideal: unchanging and bug-free. Granted, I know nothing about this except it's a silent piece of my infrastructure that has always "just worked." Is there an article about this, what is going wrong, and/or what needs to be done? Thanks, Antonio Russo
