First question: Is there a way to avoid duplication ?
I mean, as you're part of the project, can't we have a rule so that
upstream bugs are only reported upstream, on packaging bugs to BTS ?
What is the Debian rule for that ?

I was also considering adding trac to manage bugs and Wiki in the
future. And there is also a subversion interface. (Cf:
https://dev.scicraft.org/trac/about_trac).

It would be great to get rid of the limitations of berlios alltogether
and have our own infrastructure completely. WDYT ?

Are you sure that "BurnProof does not exist for DVDs" ?
IIRC with my drive its working, but I may be wrong on that.

I wonder if the patch is correct. I would keep both tests:
if ((bkpinfo->backup_media_type != dvd) && (archiving_to_media)) 

rather as I think the same code is used in both restore and archive
path.

If you agree, please add it to SVN.

Bruno.
