Re: rdiff-backup release 2.6.0?

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi Otto,

sorry, no, I'll release only 3.0 once it's ready, and it can take a 
while (2.4 and 2.6 were only internal milestones, never meant to be 
released). There were discussions on the mailing list and that was the 
conclusion.

I'm in a middle of a refactoring which will break the compatibility and 
there is not much I can do about it.

KR, Eric
