I know this project, but it's not the thing we need. It is only algorithm implementation (and I'm don't remember how it correlate with rsync). I wanted to use this library for rsync method in apt, but I don't want to create own rsync protocol implementation. -- Sviatoslav Sviridov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] [ICQ#10845380] [Lintec Project] [MLUG] -- "If you are afraid of loneliness, don't marry." -- Chekhov -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
