NSsbackup is a fork of the Sbackup project. It shares the same ideas as Sbackup but does not share code. It is fully rewritten. The main reason for the creation of this fork were differences between the developers regarding sbackup's behaviour. While the original sbackup author seems not very able to spend time on sbackup, some good job was done by the other developers on bugs and features.

After a discussion with Aigars Mahinovs, the founder of Sbackup project, we agreed that NSsbackup could and should be renamed in Sbackup, taking over the Sbackup project. This means, the two developer teams will merge and will maintain the Sbackup software.
