Hello Daniele, It has been released in the Enterprise addition at the end of February. As I reported in my last status report (see www.bacula.org), I am now backporting the changes from the Enterprise version. All the new Enterprise SD plugins will not be available in the first community version with the backport. I am planning to release the Aligned Volumes plugin first then a couple of months later release the Cloud plugin.
I have given a rough date for the backport, but since I am "retired" deadlines are now out the window (i.e. I avoid deadlines). The Oct/Nov time frame is probably reasonable ...
