Obnam 1.0 released

Lars Wirzenius has announced the stable, 1.0 release of his backup tool Obnam. "It's been a long project, much longer than I expected, and much longer than was really sensible. However, it's ready now. It's not bug free, and it's not as fast as I would like, but it's time to declare it ready for general use. If nothing else, this will get more people to use it, and they'll find the remaining problems faster than I can do on my own". Among other features, Obnam makes btrfs-style "snapshot" backups and uses data de-duplication to save space.
