+[[!meta title="Obnam2 version 0.2.2, backup program: an alpha version"]]
+[[!meta date="2021-01-29 09:48"]]
+[[!tag ]]
+
+I've just released version 0.2.2 of [Obnam2][], the second generation of
+my backup program. This alpha release is ready for a light trial of a
+modest amount of data. I would welcome any feedback you may have.
+
+* The [git repository][] has an [Ansible playbook][] for installing
+ the server, see also the [README][].
+* <https://obnam.org/> has installation instructions for the client.
+ There is a Debian package that works on Debian 10 (buster) on the
+ Intel 64-bit architecture (amd64), or you can build it from source
+ on any Linux machine.
+* [Rust crate][]
+
+Obnam2 consists of a client and a server. Both are provided in the
+Debian package. The Ansible playbook provisions and starts the server.
+
+Warning: this version is of alpha level quality. It's missing most
+functionality and future versions will not be compatible with this
+version. This version does not support encryption. It's not efficient.
+It's not compatible with Obnam1.
+
+If you might want to try a future production version of Obnam2, now
+would be a good time to try alpha versions and tell me what you like,
+what you don't like, and what you would like in the future. Use the
+[issue tracker][] if you can, please.
+
+You can contribute to the project by telling me what you need. What
+would make you happy about using backup software? How can I make
+Obnam2 be the most boring backup solution ever?
