Lars,

I am very sad to hear this, but I understand your decision.  You have
put an enormous amount of work into Obnam, and created a wonderful tool,
but there are some problems that can't be solved perfectly without
solving them, shall we say, suboptimally, first.  ;)  Such is the nature
of cutting-edge software.

Obnam is what it is because you put your heart into it, but if that's no
longer the case, then it's time to move on.  I appreciate that you have
made the decision, rather than letting the project exist in limbo with
false hope.  Maybe someone else will carry it forward.

As for the users, I think Obnam has helped inspire other tools that will
carry on in spirit, if by another name.  I don't know if any of them
will match Obnam's attention to detail, documentation, testing tools,
etc., but we will make do.

Today I've been experimenting with restic, and so far I am impressed.  A
significant drawback is that it doesn't yet support compression (it's on
their list), but it has impressive speed, and its expiration tools
address one shortcoming of Obnam's implementation.  borg is another tool
I plan to try out, as well as zbackup.

I wonder if we should start some kind of "Obnam users support group."  I
feel almost as if I've lost a trusted friend.  :)  But, as they say, all
good things...

I'm looking forward to seeing what projects you come up with in the
future, Lars.  Thanks for Obnam.

Adam
